Using the Manual

This manual is divided into sections to help make

assembly easier to understand, and to provide breaks

between each major section. In addition, check boxes

have been placed next to each step to keep track of each

step completed. Steps with a single circle () are performed

once, while steps with two circles () indicate that the

step will require repeating, such as for a right or left wing

panel, two servos, etc.

Remember to take your time and follow the directions.
