INTRODUCTION.
Thank you for choosing the X-RAY ARTF by SEAGULL EP. The X-RAY was designed with the
intermediate/advanced sport flyer in mind. It is a 3D airplane which is easy to fly and quick to
assemble. The airframe is conventionally built using balsa, plywood to make it stronger than the
average ARTF , the design allows the aeroplane to be kept light. You will find that most of the work
has been done for you already.Flying the X-RAY is simply a joy.
This instruction manual is designed to help you build a great flying aeroplane. Please read this
manual thoroughly before starting assembly of your X-RAY. Use the parts listing below to identify
all parts.

!1) Carefully remove the aileron from one
of the wing panels. Note the position of the
hinges.
!2)Removeeachhinge from thewingpanel
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
ofhingeisoneither side of thehingelinewhen
the aileron is mounted to the aileron.
HINGING THE AILERONS.
Work the aileron up and down several
times to “work in” the hinges and check
for proper movement.
!3) Slide the wing panel on the aileron 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.
Note:
!4)Deflect the aileron and completely
saturate each hinge with thin C/A glue. The
aileronsfrontsurfaceshouldlightly contact the
wing during this procedure. Ideally, when the
hinges are glued in place, a 1/64” gap or less
will be maintained throughout the lengh of the
aileron to the wing panel hinge line.
!7) Repeat this process with the other wing
panel, securely hinging the aileron in place.
!5)Turnthe wingpanel over anddeflect the
aileron in the opposite direction from the
opposite side. Apply thin C/A glue to each
hinge,makingsure that theC/Apenetratesinto
both the aileron and wing panel.
!6) Using C/A remover/debonder and a
papertowel,remove any excessC/A glue that
may have accumulated on the wing or in the
aileronhinge area.
The hinge is constructed of a special
material that allows the C/A to wick or
penetrateanddistributethroughout the
hinge, securely bonding it to the wood
structureof the wingpanel and aileron.
Note:
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 place per the stepsthat follow
using a high-quality thin C/A glue.
