Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Mini Pulse XT. Designed
from the beginning for electric power, the Mini Pulse XT
is developed from the Hangar 9®Pulse™ XT with the
same flight characteristics as the 40-size version. It is a
perfect transitional airplane for beginners who want to
learn aerobatics and for sport flyers who want an easy,
comfortable sport flyer. All flight control surfaces, hinges,
and control horns have been installed at the factory to
help speed up the building time.
Specifications
Wingspan: 42.5 in (1080mm)
Length: 37.5 in (875mm)
Wing Area: 330 sq in (21.5 sq dm)
Weight w/o Battery: 21–22 oz (710–820 g)
Weight w/ Battery: 25–27 oz (795–965 g)
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.

Note Regarding Hinges
For your convenience and to speed the assembly process,
the hinges have already been installed and glued. We
suggest that you take a minute before beginning assembly
of your model to check them.
Grasp the wing and aileron at each hinge location, then
gently pull on the aileron to ensure the hinges are secure
and cannot easily be pulled away from either surface.
Use caution when gripping the wing and aileron to avoid
crushing or damaging the structure. Repeat this process for
the elevator and rudder.
If, however, you find that the hinges pull away, simply
wick thin CA into the hinge slots and reinstall the
hinges/surfaces.
Note on Lithium Polymer Batteries
Lithium Polymer batteries are significantly
more volatile than alkaline or Ni-Cd/Ni-MH
batteries used in RC applications. All
manufacturer’s instructions and warnings
must be followed closely. Mishandling of
Li-Po batteries can result in fire. Always follow
the manufacturer’s instructions when disposing
of Lithium Polymer batteries.
Warning
An RC aircraft is not a toy! If misused, it can cause
serious bodily harm and damage to property. Fly
only in open areas, preferably at AMA (Academy of
Model Aeronautics) approved flying sites, following all
instructions included with your radio.
Keep loose items that can get entangled in the propeller
away from the prop, including loose clothing, or other
objects such as pencils and screwdrivers. Especially keep
your hands away from the propeller.
