&3 Attach the upper wing support to the wing. 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. i © Then, snap wings assembly onto 3 Slightly round the wing just behind the the lower wing support. leading edge into a cambered airfoil shape {do not bend excessively as the wing could break).
Insert the vertical stabilizer into the slot. Insert the rear half of the fuselage into the lower and upper tail support sections. 3 Snap the upper tail support onto the lower 7% all support passing through the horizontal stabilizer. & Connect the upper and lower fuselage with the band guide. o 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.
Hook the rubber band to the propeller shaft while inserting the upper and lower parts of the fuselage into their corresponding slots in the propeller unit, @ Snap the floats onto float struts. Attach the float struts to the lower fuselage. & insert the strut support into the fuselage. Then attach one end of the wing struts to the strut support and the other end to the wing. Detailed view of the strut witched to the wing.
i Detach the stand parts and remove the waste material. & Assemble the stand as shown. Place the plane holder on the top with the slot facing upward.
£3 Push the plane holder to lock it. J ASSEMBLY [5 COMPLETE! oO You can place your plane on the stand when you are not using it.
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 "LHS, LIFT 4 A High Snead, Educed Pressure Drag irs 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.
Lr Pod ts bo rcp! HISTORY ABOUT THE PLANE The modal you have in your hands is inspired by the "de Handbill Canada DC-2 Beaver". [t is a high wing aircraft developed by the Handbill Canada company in 1947. It has been first used as a "bush plane”, to provide passenger and flight services to remote and undeveloped areas.
Li Road seaplane is an STOL (Short Take OF and Landing) rafter which has short runway requirement. Seaplanes have one or more floats mounted under the fuselage to provide buoyancy, most of them are variants from modern civilian planes.
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.
