Royal-model ASH-26 Mode d’emploi
Congratulations on purchasing this up-to-date sport semi-scale glider model,
designed for slope soaring, where you will appreciate it´s maneuvereability and
nice flying characteristics. Moreover, you will find it´s flying characteristics nice
in thermal soaring, too. An up-to-date technology - sandwich - is used in this
construction.
The model is designed to be used by advanced modelers.
Kit includes: fiberglass fuselage, fiberglass wing, double-high airbrakes installed, horizontal
stabilizer, rudder, canopy, canopy frame, wing connecting rod, hardware, stickers, building
instructions
To finish the model you need:
* cyanoacrylate adhesive
* 5-min epoxy glue
* common modeller’s tools (sharp knife, drilling machine, screwdriver, fine round file,
sandpaper)
To fly you need:
* 6 channel RC set and 8 servos (at least 7 of them micro size)
CAUTION! You are responsible for running this model. A damage to property or health might
arise by improper use of this product. This is why you have to keep a safe distance from the
buildings and other developed areas when flying. Make sure that you are the only one who is
flying on the same waveband.
The product may only be used by the children over 14, supervised by adults.

FINISHING THE MODEL
The glider is ready to fly right after the installation of the RC set..
1. How to install the rudder servos
Glue the servo holder plate into the fuselage. Insert the 0.8 mm steel wire with inner tubes into
the outer bowdens. Cut the bowden tube to the proper length, insert it into the fuselage. Check if
all bends are smooth and glue the bowden in several points. Push in the steel wire of 0.8mm
diameter, cut to the proper length. Remove the wire again, solder the brass metal ending and
screw in the link, which will be later connected to the rudder horn.
The rudder is mounted on clip-on hinges. Cut out the notches for rudder hinges with a razor
blade, insert the hinges inside, fixing them with a lean instantaneous cement. Clip the rudder to
hold.
Find the position of the rudder control horn so that the straight line connecting the holes in the
horn and the axis of rotation of the control surface is perpendicular to the surface of the stabilizer
and the horn itself is in the same level as the control wire coming from the fuselage. Glue the
rudder horn. The rudder is controlled by a pull-wire drive. Attach the terminals to the rudder and
join them with a servo using a pull-wire drive.
2. How to install the elevator servos
The rudder is mounted on clip-on hinges. There is an opening for a servo in the steven. Glue up
the servo in the rudder. Glue up the control lever on the elevator flap and join it using a draw rod
with the servo. Connect the servo with the radio using an extension cable. Clip the rudder to
hold.
3. How to install the aileron and flaps servos
Insert the extension cables into the wing and connect them to the servos. It is recommended to
solder these two cables instead of just using connectors. If soldering, take care to the isolation of
the single wires. Attach the control horns to the ailerons and flaps. Fix the ailerons and flaps in
the neutral position using a piece of self-adhesive tape. Install single levers to the servos, adjust
the neutral position and insert the servos into the openings - not fixing them yet. Prepare 4 rods
made of 1,5 mm wire with a „Z“- bend on one end, measure and cut the wires to the proper
lengths, put on pieces of the white bowden and fix the endings as described above (cyanoacrylate
+ pressing). Screw in the clevises. Remove the servos, insert the „Z“-bends into the servo levers,
and glue the servos in the openings using 5-min epoxy. Connect the pushrods to the control
horns. Attach the servo covers using a double-sided self adhesive tape.
3. How to install the servos to the brakes
Attach the servos with two-sided Scotch tape to the channel and join them with the dive flap
using a draw rod. You will need extension cables and a Y-cable.
Shade your spoiler by pushing slightly with a small flat screwdriver on the arms of the bar (black
parts). Pull the Z of the manoeuvring on the gilded part and insert it into the interlocking hole
connecetd with the bottom of the servo. Shade again your spoiler and screw down your clevis at
the end of the manoeuvring. Demonstrate your servo heeding that the manoeuvring arm of the
servo is in the position of closed spoilers of your radion manoeuvring. (Example full gas on the
way of the engine manoeuvring of your radio) Adjust your manoeuvring and glue your servo
after having checked that both spoilers servos are moving in the right direction. Cover the servos
with the sheet.
4. How to install the radio and batteries
Insert the batteries, power switch and receiver in the fuselage .Connect all the servos in the
fuselage with the radio. Use a Y-cable to connect the aileron servos to one channel only or use
two channels, if available, for ailerons. Use a Y-cable to flaps servos and brakes servos.
Use foam to protect them from vibrations and impacts. Connect all components as necessary.
5. Fitting the cockpit
Cut out the canopy transparent section using the mark line, glue it onto the epoxy frame, trim it
then and grind a bit off to a desirable shape.
The canopy is held in place with a pin and canopy lock. Bore then the matching holes in the
fuselage and in the canopy frame. Glue the pin in the front canopy frame. Glue the canopy lock
in the fuselage.
6. Assembling and finishing the model
The wing halves can be secured in the right position either by self-adhesive tape or using a
rubber ring. In this case make 1.8 mm holes in the first wing ribs and screw in the hooks for the
fixing rubber ring. Drill the holes in the proper position in the fuselage for the rubber ring.
Applying the decorative stickers is the last step to finish your model.
FLYING
Check the centre of gravity position (40 mm), add some lead if necessary, don`t forget to
check the symmetry of the whole model. Once on the field, first check the function of your RC
set and check the range, too. Calm wheather is the best for the first flights. Try hand launching,
trim if required for optimal gliding. Provided that everything is in order, you can go for the
maiden flight, with a charged battery of course.
Besides the slope soaring it is possible to install a tow hook and use a set for high-altitude
launches for thermal soaring.
Have a lot of fun and many happy landings with your ASH-26
