CHRISTEN HUSKY Instruction Manual.

INTRODUCTION.

Thank you for choosing the CHRISTEN HUSKY ARTF by SEAGULL MODELS COMPANY LTD.

The CHRISTEN HUSKY was designed with the intermediate/advanced sport flyer in mind. It is a

semi scale 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 , yet the design allows the aeroplane

to be kept light. You will find that most of the work has been done for you already.The motor mount

has been fitted and the hinges are pre-installed . Flying the CHRISTEN HUSKY 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 CHRISTEN HUSKY . Use the parts listing

below to identify all parts.

WARNING.

Please be aware that this aeroplane is not a toy and if assembled or used incorrectly it is

capable of causing injury to people or property. WHEN YOU FLY THIS AEROPLANE YOU

ASSUME ALL RISK & RESPONSIBILITY.

If you are inexperienced with basic R/C flight we strongly recommend you contact your R/C supplier

and join your local R/C Model Flying Club. R/C Model Flying Clubs offer a variety of training

procedures designed to help the new pilot on his way to successful R/C flight. They will also be able

to advise on any insurance and safety regulations that may apply.

HINGING THE ELEVATORS

1)Locate the items for this section of the

manual.

2)Carefully remove the elevator from one of

the horizontal stabilizer panels. Note the

position of the hinges. Used C/A glue to fix the

hinges position..

3) Remove each hinge from the horizontal

stabilizer panel and elevator and place a T-

pin in the center of each hunge. Slide each

hinge into the elevator until the T-pin is snug

against the elevator. This will help ensure an

equal amount of hinge is on either side of the

hinge line when the elevator is mounted to

the horizontal stabilizer panel.

3) Carefully bend the second nylon tube

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

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.

INSTALLING THE STOPPER ASSEMBLY.

2) Using a modeling knife, cut one length

of silicon fuel line. Connect one end of the line

to the weighted fuel pick up and the other end

to the nylon pick up tube.

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.

5) With the stopper assembly in place,

the weighted pick-up should rest away from

the rear of the tank and move freely inside the

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.

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.

FUEL TANK INSTALLATION.

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 the tank is installed inside the

fuselage, it may be difficult to determine which

is which.

CHRISTEN HUSKY Instruction Manual.

Fuel tank.

 7) Slide the fuel tank into the fuselage. Guide

the lines from the tank through the hole in the

firewall.

 8) Use plywood template to hold in place

the fuel tank with C/A glue to secure the fuel

tank inside the fuselage.

C/A glue.

9) Connect the lines from the tank to the engine

and muffler. The vent line will connect to the

muffler and the line from the clunk to the

carburetor.

Fuel pick up tube.

Fuel fill tube.

C/A glue.

Blow through one of the lines to en-

sure the fuel lines have not become kinked

inside the fuel tank compartment. Air

should flow through easily.

INSTALLING THE FUSELAGE SERVOS.

1) Install the rubber grommets and brass

collets onto the throttle servo. Test fit the servo

into the aileron servo mount.

 2) Secure the servos with the screws pro-

vided with your radio system.

Because the size of servos differ, you

may need to adjust the size of the precut open-

ing in the mount. The notch in the sides of the

mount allow the servo lead to pass through.
