Before you begin, important notes from A.M.R
1-) This model airplane is not a toy. It must be built with outmost care. It is imperative that you follow each steps of
the building manual. If you need assistance of any kind, please contact us directly.
2-) Adhesives:
a-) For general assembly, wood glue works best.
b-) C.A adhesives can be used. However, their high-toxic level makes them uncomfortable for some builders.
c-) IMPORTANT: For hi-strength sections, you must use “Structural Epoxy” types, not the 5 or 30-minute types
available in most hobby shops. In this manual, you will notice that some assemblies do mention “use epoxy” and
you must do so. Structural epoxies penetrate deep into the wood fibbers, creating a very strong bond. We
recommend these brands: G2 Epoxy kit, T88 Epoxy or West Systems. They are available from any Aircraft or
Marine specialty shops in convenient sizes. Carefully follow their mixing ratios.
3-) We recommend that all control horns be 8-32 types (no less) and that all screws/nuts be secured with thread
locker.
4-) A straight airframe is the only way to go. Make sure that you have a straight building surface before you begin
building.
5-) Sanding bars: Using ½” balsa planking (not included) make 3 of them, 3” wide x 18” long with some 100, 180 and
280 grit sand paper.
6-) If something looks wrong, it probably is. Make sure that you follow the building sequences with the appropriate
part number.
7-) Take your time and verify the alignment before final gluing. This extra caution will eliminate possible frustrations.
