Note: please read all the instructions before you begin construction. Handle the parts of this
kit with care so you do not damage any of the structure or covering. Inspect all the parts for
any shipping damage and report any issues to as soon as you can. Make sure you have a flat
and sturdy workbench and follow all safety advice for the tools and adhesives you plan to use.
Aircraft Covering
Varying temperatures and storage delays can cause covering material to loosen over time and
transportation. We recommend lightly going over all the covering with a covering iron set
at medium temperatures. Be sure to use a soft cover over your iron so you do not scratch the
covering surface. Be sure you go over all seams and edges of the covering to assure it is
secure to the airframe and other covering. Be careful not to apply too much heat or you may
cause bubbles or damage to the covering. A heat gun may also be used along with a soft
cotton cloth to shrink and adhere the covering. Again, be extremely careful when using a
heat gun.
Some modellers prefer to seal the hinge gaps using strips of appropriate covering or clear trim
tape. We have found this to be helpful with models intended for higher speed flight or models
