When placing magnets, space them evenly along the edges of the Fuselage Base piece. Use more magnets at the front and rear, and remember to avoid placing magnets where the CF spars are. My advice is to mount the magnets to the fuselage base piece before building the fusela then press the fuselage base piece against the wing/base piece to make

General Tips 1. All fuselage pieces need to be beveled at varying degrees for proper fit. 2. I recommend using UHU Creativ glue for joining fuselage pieces for flexibility 3. Start with 1/2 inch up and down deflection on elevons and adjust to your flyin 4. If possible, use exponential on radio mixing to soften control throws. 5. Have fun! Any questions please email me at dcobra_98@yahoo.com or visit

Materials needed /recommended: 2-3 sheets depron/FFF/sturdyboard 1/32 lite ply for control horns Polyurethane glue, foam safe CA, UHU Creativ Glue Thin balsa strips (1/32 I think) (2) Servos I used Hitec HS-55's (1) Brushless motor/ESC/Prop - I used HET Typhoon 15/10, EFlite 20 a (1) Reciever - I used Hitec Electron 6.
