SAFETY PRECAUTION:

• This is not a toy

• Be sure that no other flyers are using your radio

frequency.

• Do not smoke near fuel

• Store fuel in a cool, dry place, away from

children and pets.

• Wear safety glasses.

• The glow plug clip must be securely attached to

the glow plug.

• Do not flip the propeller with your fingers.

• Keep loose clothing and wires away from the propeller.

• Do not start the engine if people are near. Do not

stand in line with the side of the propeller.

The painted and plastic parts used in this kit are

fuel proof. However, they are not tolerant of many

harsh chemicals including the following: paint thinner,

C/A glue accelerator, C/A glue debonder and acetone.

Do not let these chemicals come in contact with the

colors on the covering and the plastic parts.

Please trial fit all the parts. Make sure you have the

correct parts and that they fit and are aligned properly

before gluing! This will assure proper assembly. The

TUCANO 60CC SCALE 1:4 ¼ ARF is hand made

from natural materials, every plane is unique and

minor adjustments may have to be made. However,

you should find the fit superior and assembly simple.

NOTE:

To avoid scratching your new airplane, do not

unwrap the pieces until they are needed for assembly.

Cover your workbench with an old towel or brown

paper, both to protect the aircraft and to protect the

table. Keep a couple of jars or bowls handy to hold the

small parts after you open the bag.

PREPARATIONS

Use a covering iron with a covering sock on

high heat to tighten the covering if necessary.

Apply pressure over sheeted areas to

thoroughly bond the covering to the wood.

INSTALLING THE AILERONs AND FLAPs

SERVOS

1. Install the rubber grommets and brass eyelets onto

the aileron servo.

2. Using a modeling knife, remove the covering from over

the pre-cut servo arm exit hole on the aileron servo

tray / hatch. This hole will allow the servo arm to pass

through when installing the aileron pushrods.

3. Place the servo into the servo tray. Center the servo

within the tray and drill pilot holes through the block

of wood for each of the four mounting screws

provided with the servo.

4. Using the thread as a guide and using masking

tape, tape the servo lead to the end of the

thread: carefully pull the thread out. When you

have pulled the servo lead out, remove the

masking tape and the servo lead from the

thread.

5. Place the aileron servo tray / hatch into the servo

box on the bottom of the wing and drill pilot

holes through the tray and the servo box for

each of the four mounting screws. Secure the

servo tray in place using the mounting screws

provided .

6. Repeat step # 2 - # 5 to install the second aileron

servo in the opposite wing half.
