SPACE WALKER II Instruction Manual.

INTRODUCTION.
Thank you for choosing the SPACE WALKER II ARTF by SEAGULL MODELS. The SPACE
WALKER II was designed with the intermediate/advanced sport flyer in mind. It is a semi scale
airplane which is easy to fly and quick to assemble. The airframe is conventionally built using balsa,
plywood and veneer to make it stronger than the average ARTF , yet the design allows the aeroplane
to be kept light. You will find that most of the work has been done for you already. The pushrods are
pre-made to the correct lengths, the motor mount has been fitted and the hinges are pre-installed
and pinned for security. Flying the SPACE WALKER II is simply a joy.
This instruction manual is designed to help you build a great flying aeroplane. Please read this
manual thoroughly before starting assembly of your SPACE WALKER II . Use the parts listing below
to identify all parts.
