function description

With the racing boat typhoon you have a thoroughbred Rennkatam

aran at the start. The geometry of the hull gives the model extre-

mely good handling on the water including sharp turns.

Both recommended outboards are connected via a linkage and con-

trolled with only one strong servo.

The fuselage, hood and hood are laminated from laminated fiber-

glass and are dyed white and trimmed to install the RC components.

Two inline engines No.6645 to 6649 provide different speeds depen-

ding on the ability and experience of the rider.

It is essential to operate the motors together with the

water cooling system No.6645.1 so that they do not over-

heat during operation and are damaged.

For the connection of the ESC`s there are two ways:

1. Both controllers on channel 1 are operated via Y cable No.S8187.

(First of all the controllers have to be taught in individually on the

control stick)

2. Operate the controller via mixer on the remote control. To do

this, the second controller is plugged into channel 6 and assigned

via the free mixers. Only one controller may supply the receiver

with BEC. For the second pull the red wire on the receiver cable!

Insert the telemetry cable from the BEC control to channel 5 (on the

GR-12).

Assembling of the model

138 mm

Middle

Teilesatz 4

The fiberglass parts are all finished cropped. The wood laser parts

are glued together using the pictures (superglue No. 5821)

To install the servo base (4) in the fuselage, Stabilit Express no.

960.85. The position of the base is provided centrally in the fuse-

lage. Rear cut-out hull hull to end socket is 138 mm.

Also with Stabilit Expres, the two aluminum tubes (7) for the rud-

der links are glued into the existing holes.

Drill 4 holes for attaching the

trims (3). Use screws (19)

Glue the aluminum tube (7)

into the fuselage. Overhang

on the outside about 2-3 mm

The rubber grommet (8) is

mounted on the tube and

fixed with a drop of superg-

lue, as well on the linkage to

the outboard.

Glue the pre-glued servo

base in the middle of the

fuselage at a distance of 138

mm from the rear cut-out

edge. Prior to this, connect

both linkage systems as a

test. Align the aluminum

tubes so that they do not

touch the poles. Only then

glue and push on the rubber

grommets.

10 / 14 2280_MP_V1

Use the hook and loop strap (20) to attach

the batteries.

The rubber sleeves (8) can be fixed with

some superglue or alternatively with cable

ties (optionally available under No. S8436)

Always place the antenna of the receiver

outwards and as far up as possible, as the

water surface can strongly reflect the radio

signal.

Seal the antenna bushing with some Fixo-

gum No.575.

Align and glue the aluminum tubes (7)

slightly overhanging.

Thread the motor connection cables

through the socket on the fuselage. Then

close the maintenance opening of 20 mm

with the waterproof adhesive tape.

Secure all screws well with screw lock (No.

952)

On the engines the heat sink no. Mount

6645.1 and the nipples for feeding with sili-

cone hose no. 1668.3 connect.

The discharge from the heat sink is in turn

out of the housing of the outboard motor.

To do this, use the lower recess on the rear

of the hood to guide the hose outwards.

Both outboards are connected via clevises

(5) and threaded rod (15). The outboards

themselves are screwed to the hull via the

8 screws (16).
