couple of jars or bowls handy to hold

the small parts after you open the

bags.

Pleasetrialfitallparts.Makesureyou

have the correct parts and that they

fit and are aligned properly before

gluing! This will ensure proper as-

sembly as the ULTIMATE is made

from natural materials and minor ad-

justments may have to be made.

The control surfaces, including the

ailerons, elevators, and rudder, are

prehinged with hinges installed, but the

hinges are not glued in place. It is

imperativethat you properly adhere the

hingesin placeper the steps that follow

using a high-quality thin C/A glue.

1) Carefully remove the aileron from one

of the wing panels. Note the position of the

hinges.

2)Removeeach hinge fromthewingpanel

and aileron and place a T-pin in the center of

each hinge. Slide each hinge into the wing

panel until the T-pin is snug against the wing

panel. This will help ensure an equal amount

ofhingeison either sideofthehingeline when

the aileron is mounted to the aileron.

HINGING THE AILERONS.

Note:

3) Slide the aileron on the wing panel until

there is only a slight gap. The hinge is now

centered on the wing panel and aileron.

Remove the T-pins and snug the aileron

against the wing panel.A gap of 1/64” or less

shouldbe maintained betweenthe wing panel

andaileron.

material that allows the C/A to wick or

will be maintained throughout the lengh of the

ULTIMATE. Instruction Manual.

Work the aileron up and down several

times to “work in” the hinges and check

for proper movement.

Glue the elevator hinges in place using the

same tectniques used to hinge the ailerons.

HINGING THE ELEVATOR.

Note:

8)Afterbothailerons are securelyhinged,

firmly grasp the wing panel and aileron to

make sure the hinges are securely glued and

cannot be pulled out. Do this by carefully

applying medium pressure, trying to separate

the aileron from the wing panel. Use caution

not to crush the wing structure.

7) Repeat this process with the other wing

panel, securely hinging the aileron in place.

6) Using C/A remover/debonder and a

papertowel, remove anyexcess C/A gluethat

may have accumulated on the wing or in the

aileronhinge area.

INSTALLING THE BATTERY

1) Using a modeling knife, carefully cut

off the rear portion of one of the 3 nylon tubes

leaving 1/2” protruding from the rear of the

stopper. This will be the fuel pick up tube.

2) Usinga modeling knife, cut onelength

ofsiliconfuel line. Connectoneend of theline

tothe weighted fuel pick up andthe otherend

to the nylon pick up tube.

3) Carefully bend the second nylon tube

up at a 45º angle. This tube is the vent tube.

Silicon tubing not inclued.

Battery.

Thread locker.

4) Test fit the stopper assembly into the

tank. It may be necessary to remove some of

the flashing around the tank opening using a

modeling knife. If flashing is present, make

sure none falls into the tank.

5) With the stopper assembly in place,

the weighted pick-up should rest away from

therear of the tank and move freely insidethe

tank. The top of the vent tube should rest just

below the top of the tank. It should not touch

the top of the tank.

Important: When the stopper assembly is in-

stalled in the tank, the top of the vent tube

should rest just below the top surface of the

tank. It should not touch the top of the tank.

Carefully use a lighter or heat gun to

permenently set the angle of the vent tube.

6) When satisfied with the alignment of

the stopper assembly tighten the 3 x 20mm

machine screw until the rubber stopper ex-

pands and seals the tank opening. Do not

overtighten the assembly as this could cause

the tank to split.

You should mark which tube is the vent

and which is the fuel pickup when you attach

fuel tubing to the tubes in the stopper. Once

thetank isinstalled inside the fuselage, itmay

be difficult to determine which is which.

Blow through one of the lines to ensure

the fuel lines have not become kinked inside

the fuel tank compartment. Air should flow

through easily.
