INTRODUCTION.

Thankyouforchoosingthe SEAGULLFUNFLY3DARTFbySEAGULLMODELSCOMPANYLTD.

The SEAGULL FUNFLY 3D 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

aeroplanetobekeptlight.Youwillfindthatmostoftheworkhasbeendoneforyoualready.Themotor

mounthasbeenfittedandthehingesarepre-installed.Flyingthe SEAGULLFUNFLY3D issimply

ajoy.

This instruction manual is designed to help you build a great flying aeroplane. Please read this

manual thoroughly before starting assembly of your SEAGULL FUNFLY 3D . Use the parts listing

below to identify all parts.

The control surfaces, including the

ailerons, elevators, and rudder, are

prehinged with hinges installed, but

the hinges are not glued in place. It

is imperative that you properly

adhere the hinges in place per the

steps that follow using a high-quality

thin C/A glue.

2)Removeeach hinge fromthewing panel

and aileron and place a T-pin in the center of

each hinge. Slide each hinge into the aileron

untiltheT-pin is snug againsttheaileron.This

will help ensure an equal amount of hinge is

is mounted to the wing panel.

HINGING THE AILERONS .

Note:

1) Carefully remove the aileron from one

of the wing panels. Note the position of the

hinges.

3) Slide the aileron on the wing panel until

there is only a slight gap. The hinge is now

centered on the wing panel and aileron.

INSTALL THE AILERONS CONTROL

HORN.

1) Locate the hardware necessary to install

the control horns for the ailerons.

8)After both ailerons aresecurelyhinged,

firmly grasp the wing panel and aileron to

make sure the hinges are securely glued and

cannot be pulled out. Do this by carefully

applying medium pressure, trying to separate

the aileron from the wing panel. Use caution

not to crush the wing structure.

7) Repeat this process with the other wing

panel, securely hinging the aileron in place.

6) Using C/A remover/debonder and a

papertowel,removeany excess C/Agluethat

may have accumulated on the wing or in the

aileronhingearea.

5)Turnthewingpanel over anddeflectthe

aileron in the opposite direction from the

opposite side. Apply thin C/A glue to each

hinge,makingsurethattheC/Apenetrates into

both the aileron and wing panel.

Workthe aileronupanddownseveral

times to “work in” the hinges and

Note:

4) Deflect the aileron and completely

saturate each hinge with thin C/A glue. The

aileronsfrontsurface shouldlightlycontactthe

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.

Thehingeis constructedof a special

material that allows the C/A to wick

or penetrate and distribute

throughout the hinge, securely

bonding it to the wood structure of

the wing panel and aileron.

Note:

Hinge.

HINGING THE RUDDER.

Glue the rudder hinges in place using the

same techniques used to hinge the ailerons.

2) Position the control horn on the bottom of

the aileron. You will see pre-drill hole 3mm for

the horn mounting screw on the aileron.

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.

2) Usingamodelingknife,cut one length

ofsiliconfuelline. Connect one endoftheline

totheweightedfuelpick up and the other end

to the nylon pick up tube.

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.

Fuel fill tube.

5) With the stopper assembly in place,

the weighted pick-up should rest away from

therear 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

thetankisinstalledinsidethe fuselage, it may

be difficult to determine which is which.
