Jumper 25

Instruction Man u al

Thank you for choosing the

Jumper 25

ARTF by SEAGULL MODELS. The

Jumper 25

was designed

with the in ter me di ate/advanced sport  yer in mind. It is a High-wing aeroplane which is easy to

 y and quick to assemble. The airframe is con ven tion al ly built using balsa, plywood and veneer

to make it stronger than the average ARTF , yet the design allows the aeroplane to be kept light.

You will  nd that most of the work has been done for you already. The pushrods are pre-made to

the correct lengths, the motor mount has been  tted and the hinges are pre-installed and pinned

for security. Flying the

Jumper 25

is simply a joy.

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

manual thoroughly before starting assembly of your

Jumper 25

. Use the parts listing below to

identify all parts.

We encourage you to let us know your comments. Fill out the consumer feedback survey at the back of

this manual, send us a letter or contact us at [email protected]. or [email protected](Australi

a) or [email protected](Vietnam).

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 &

RE SPON SI BIL I TY.

If you are inexperienced with basic R/C  ight 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  ight. They will also be able to advise on any

insurance and safety regulations that may apply.

NOTE:

To avoid scratching your new aer o plane

we sug gest that you cover your work-

bench with an old towel. Keep a couple

of jars or bowls handy to hold the small

parts after you open the bags.

Please trial  t all parts. Make sure you

have the correct parts and that they  t

and are aligned prop er ly be fore gluing!

This will ensure proper as sem bly as the

Jumper 25

is made from nat u ral ma-

terials and minor ad just ments may have

to be made.

The paint and plastic parts used in this kit

are fuel proof. How ev er, they are not tol-

erant of many harsh chem i cals in clud ing

the fol low ing: paint thinner, cyano-acr-

ylate glue ac cel er a tor, cy anoacr ylate

glue de-bonder and acetone. Do not let

these chem i cals come in contact with the

colours on the covering and the plas tic

parts.

WING ASSEMBLY

NOTE:

We highly recommend using 30 minute

epoxy as it is stronger and provides

more working time, al low ing the builder

to properly align the parts. Using fast cure

epoxy when joining the wing halves could



Test  t the dihedral brace into each wing

half. The brace should slide in easily up

to the centreline that you drew. If not, use

220 grit sandpaper with a sanding block

and sand down the edges and ends of

the brace until it  ts properly.

NOTE:

The dihedral brace is cut in the shape

of a “V”. This shape gives the wing the

correct dihedral angle. Make sure you

do not test  t the brace upside down.



Remove the brace when sat is  ed with

its  t in each wing half. Coat both sides

of one half of the di he dral brace with 30

minute epoxy. Next, pour some epoxy into

the dihedral box in one wing panel. Make

sure you cover the top and bottom as well

as the sides of the dihedral brace. Use

enough epoxy to  ll any gaps.



Insert the dihedral brace into the di he dral

box up to the centreline. With paper tow-

els wipe off any ex cess epoxy that may

have squeezed out of the joint .

result in the glue drying before the wing

halves are aligned properly which may

result in failure of the wing cen tre section

during  ight.



Locate the plywood wing dihedral brace.

Using a ruler, locate its centre and draw

a vertical line .

Dihedral brace

Draw centreline

Jumper 25

Instruction Man u al



Once the epoxy has cured, trial  t

both wing halves together. The cen tre

ribs should  t together  ush with no

gaps. If gaps do exist, use 220 grit

sandpaper and sand down the high

spots on the root ribs and the wing

joiner until a proper  t is achieved. The

correct amount of dihedral is ready-

built into the wings. With one wing half

laid  at on the table, the other wing

tip should be ap prox i mate ly 8cm off

the table surface. If this needs to be

adjusted, you may do so by sanding

small amounts from the cen tre ribs

or dihedral brace.



Carefully apply masking tape around

the top and bottom edge of the root

rib of each wing half to protect them

from damage caused by epoxy.



Mix a generous amount of 30 minute

epoxy. Coat the exposed half of the

dihedral brace, and the remaining

wing joiner box and both root ribs

with epoxy. Slide the two wing halves

to geth er and carefully align them at

the leading and trailing edges. Wipe

away any excess epoxy using paper

tow els. Use mask ing tape wrapped

around the centre section to hold

the halves in place until the epoxy

cures.

SERVO INSTALLATION

INSTALLING THE AILERON SERVO MOUNT



{1}

Plywood Aileron Servo Mount



Install the rubber grommets and brass

collets onto the aileron servo. Test  t the ser vo

into the ai le ron servo mount.

Because the size of servos differ, you

may need to adjust the size of the precut

opening in the mount. The notch in the

sides of the mount allow the servo lead to

pass through.



Remove the aileron servo. Place the

mount onto the wing, aligning the cutout in the

mount with the cutout in the wing. The two

notches in the mount should face the leading

edge of the wing.



While holding the servo mount  rmly

in place, trace around it using a pen.



Remove the mount, and using a

mod el ing knife, carefully remove the covering

from inside the outline you drew.



Using Kwik Bond 5 Minute Epoxy,

glue the servo mount into place. Remove

any ex cess epoxy using a paper towel and

rubbing alcohol. Use pieces of masking tape

to hold the tray in place until the ep oxy fully

cures.

Servo tray



When the epoxy has cured, care ful ly

remove the masking tape from the

wing.



Peel off the backing from the self ad-

he sive covering strip. Apply the strip to

the centre section of the wing starting

from the bottom trailing edge. Wrap

the strip all the way around the wing

until it meets the trailing edge again.

Trim off any excess strip.

Connect one end of the line to the weighted

fuel pickup and the other end to the nylon

pick up tube.

When the stop per as sem bly is installed in the

tank, the top of the vent tube should rest just

below the top surface of the tank. It should

not touch the top of the tank.



Test  t the stopper assembly into the

tank. It may be necessary to remove some

of the  ash ing around the tank opening using

a modeling knife. If  ashing is present, make

sure none falls into the tank.



With the stopper assembly in place, the

weight ed pickup should rest about 3/8” away

from the rear of the tank and move free ly in side

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.



When satisfied with the alignment

of the stop per assembly tighten the 3mm x

20mm ma chine screw until the rubber stop per

ex pands and seals the tank opening. Do not

over tight en the as sem bly as this could cause

the tank to split.

MOUNTING THE ENGINE

PARTS REQUIRED



1) Locate the second 500mm plain wire

pushrod and second 400mm nylon pushrod

housing. Install the pushrod housing through

the predrilled hole in the  rewall and into the

servo compartment. The pushrod housing

should protrude 1/4" out past the front of the

 rewall. Make a Z-Bend 1/4" from one end of

the plain wire pushrod.



2) Screw 4 pilot horns 2.5 mm diameter on

engine mount as follow.



3) Temporarily bolt the plates to the motor

mount, but do not completely tight en them

down at this time. Leave them slightly loose

so they can be moved if needed.



9) Attach the Z-Bend in the pushrod wire

to the throttle arm on the carburetor. You

will need to remove the throttle arm from the

car- buretor to be able to attach the Z-bend.

When complete, reattach the throttle arm to

the car- buretor.



10) Locate the fuel tank assembly you built

earlier. Connect two lengths of fuel line (not

in- cluded) to the tubes coming out of the tank.

Keep track which one is for the fuel pick-up

and which one is for the muf er pressure.



11) Run the tubes throught the hole in the

 rewall and slide the tank assembly into place.

The stopper of the tank should rest in the pre-

drilled hole in the  rewall.



12) Use pieces off foam rubber to hold the

tank in place. Be careful the tank or the foam

doesn’t interfere with the pushrods.
