HINGING THE FLAP.

.Hinge.

Note : e control surfaces, including the ai-

lerons, elevators, and rudder, are prehinged

with hinges installed, but the hinges are not

glued in place. It is imperative that you prop-

erly adhere the hinges in place per the steps

that follow using a high-quality thin C/A glue.

1) Carefully remove the aileron from one

of the wing panels. Note the position of the

hinges.

2) Remove each hinge from the wing panel

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

each hinge. Slide each hinge into the wing

panel until the T-pin is snug against the wing

panel. is will help ensure an equal amount

of hinge is on either side of the hinge line

when the aileron is mounted to the aileron.

3) Slide the wing panel on the aileron until

there is only a slight gap. e hinge is now

centered on the wing panel and aileron. Re-

move the T-pins and snug the aileron against

the wing panel. A gap of 1/64” or less should

be maintained between the wing panel and

aileron.

HINGING THE AILERON.

Hinge.

T-pin.

4) Deect the aileron and completely satu-

rate each hinge with thin C/A glue. e ailer-

ons front surface should lightly contact the

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.

NOTE : e hinge is constructed of a spe-

cial 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.

5) Turn the wing panel over and deect the

aileron in the opposite direction from the

opposite side. Apply thin C/A glue to each

hinge, making sure that the C/A penetrates

into both the aileron and wing panel.

6) Using C/A remover/debonder and a pa-

per towel, remove any excess C/A glue that

may have accumulated on the wing or in the

aileron hinge area.

7) Repeat this process with the other wing

panel, securely hinging the aileron in place.

8) Aer both ailerons are securely hinged,

rmly grasp the wing panel and aileron to

make sure the hinges are securely glued and

cannot be pulled out. Do this by carefully ap-

plying medium pressure, trying to separate

the aileron from the wing panel. Use caution

not to crush the wing structure.

Work the aileron up and down sev-

eral times to “work in” the hinges

and check for proper movement.

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.

3) Remove each hinge from the hori-

zontal stabilizer panel and elevator

and place a T-pin in the center of each

hinge. Slide each hinge into the eleva-

tor until the T-pi n is snug against the

elevator. is will help ensure an equal

amount of hinge is on either side of the

hinge line when the elevator is mount-

ed to the horizontal stabilizer panel.

Glue the hinge hinges in place using the

same techniques used to hing the ailerons.

HINGING THE RUDDER.

Glue the rudder hinges in place using

the same techniques used to hinge the ai-

lerons.

INSTALLING THE FUSELAGE SERVOS.

Because the size of servos dier, you

may need to adjust the size of the precut

opening in the mount. e notch in the

sides of the mount allow the servo lead to

pass through.

1) Install the rubber grommets and brass

collets onto the throttle servo. Test t the

servo into the aileron servo mount.

2) Secure the servos with the screws pro-

vided with your radio system.

INSTALLING THE STOPPER

ASSEMBLY.

1) Using a modeling knife, carefully cut

o the rear portion of one of the 3 nylon

tubes leaving 1/2” protruding from the

rear of the stopper. is will be the fuel

pick up tube.

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.

Vent tube. Fuel pick up tube.

Fuel fill tube.

3) Carefully bend the second nylon tube up

at a 45º angle. is tube is the vent tube.

4) Test t the stopper assembly into the tank.

It may be necessary to remove some of the

ashing around the tank opening using a

modeling knife. If ashing is present, make

sure none falls into the tank.

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. e 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 satised with the alignment of the

stopper assembly tighten the 3 x 20mm ma-

chine screw until the rubber stopper expands

and seals the tank opening. Do not over-

tighten 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

dicult to determine which is which.

RADIAL ROCKET 10cc Instruction Manual.

7) Slide the fuel tank into the fuselage. Guide

the lines from the tank through the hole in

the rewall.

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.

Balsa wood.

9) Connect the lines from the tank to the en-

gine and muer. e vent line will connect

to the muer and the line from the clunk to

the carburetor.

Vent tube.

Fuel pick up tube.

Fuel ll tube.

Blow through one of the lines to ensure

the fuel lines have not become kinked inside

the fuel tank compartment. Air should ow

through easily.

ENGINE MOUNT INSTALLATION.

1) Locate the items necessary to install

the engine mount included with your

model.

4x30mm

2) Use four 4x30mm head bolts and four

4mm washers to attach the engine mount

rails to the rewall. Tighten the screws .

Make sure to use threadlock on the screws to

help prevent them from vibrating loose.

read locker glue.
