& Snap the fasteners to fix the wing support. Insert the lower wing support onto the upper fuselage paying attention to match the holes. @ Snap the fasteners to fix the wing support to the fuselage. Slightly round both wings just behind the leading edge into a cambered airfoil shape {do not bend excessively as the wing could break. Insert the lower wing support onto the lower fuselage.
Attach the upper wing supports to both wings. Snap the upper tall support onto the lower tall support passing through the horizontal stabilizer. ky c io Insert the vertical stabilizer into the slot. iB Insert the rear half of the fuselage into the lower and upper tall support sections.
13 6 Connect the upper and lower fuselage with the band guide. Bring both ends of the standard rubber band together and tie them into a knot. Double the rubber band to form two loops. Hook the knot to the tail to prevent it from rubbing against the fuselage. Pass the rubber band through the band guide. © Insert the landing gear Into the slot on the propeller unit. Then, hook the rubber band to the propeller unit and insert the front end of both parts of the fuselage into their corresponding slots.
és Detach the stand parts and remove the waste material. ASSEMBLY Is COMPLETE! & Assemble the stand as shown. Place the plane holder on the top with the slot facing upward.
& Push the plane holder to lock in position. PE ASSEMBLY IS COMPLETE! 3 You can place your plane on the stand when you are not using ft.
23 HOW DOES FITLY The basic principle of airplanes. Do you know what maintain airplanes in the air? It is due to what physicists call "Bernoulli Principle. To put it in simple terms, this principle states that pressure is low when air is moving fast and high otherwise. Not sure what it means? “You can try this little experiment: Take a sheet of paper and place it at the edge of a table as illustrated. Lace a hairdryer on the table and blow air across the top of the sheet of paper. The paper will ft up.
HOW DOES THAT WORK WITH OUR PLANE? “When alr passes around the wings, the alr passing on top of the wing goes faster than the alr passing under because it has a greater distance to travel. Thus the pressure under the wing Is higher than above. This difference of pressure pushes the airplane upward, this Is what physicists call "LI, LIFT High Speed, Hedged Pressure oo Drag {rs addition to the "LEERY there Is another force applied by the wind on the plane, the Drag.
oY Food ts be spi PISTON ENGINES There exist two kinds of aircraft engines: "Piston engines” and "Cas turbine”, Piston engines are generally used for small size airplane due to their light weight.
“pd Food GAS TURBINES Cas turbines are mostly found on large size airliners and military planes. Gas turbine engine don't have propeller, try to identify the type of engine next time you see a plane.
vr WAL 2ad Us be inspired / HISTORY ABOUT THE PLANE The model you have In your hands is inspired by the "Hovercraft Model Staggerwing®. It is a biplane developed by an aviator and an aircraft engineer who co-founded the Beech Aircraft Company in 1932. STAGGERING BIPLANE Due to les high speed, the Staggering became popular In the 30s for alr races. Later, It has been used by many coin tries for military purpose Beech craft Is a trademark of TEX TRON INNOVATIONS INC.
[4 Food tr be po Wing Configuration Wing configuration refers to the arrangement of the wings on 2 plane. Wing configurations are beneficial in their own ways for performance, maintenance and comfort. In general aviation (GA), Biplane is a combination of two wings, one stacked an top of the other. Biplane Is the most comment wing configuration among the early planes, its stronger and lighter than monoplanes.
DIFFERENT RUBBER BAND In your model plane, the rubber band acts as the engine transforming "elastic energy” into "mechanical energy” to spin the propeller. Three rubber bands are provided in this kit, two short ones, a little darker and stiffer, and a standard one, more elastic. Try to fly your plane with one short rubber band or combine two of them. Then try it with the standard one to see the differences.
