11 1 Main Wing M3x18mm Screw PA3x18mm Screw d3xd7mm Washer Step 1. Insert the aluminum wing tube with the pre-drilled hole end into the right wing. Align the lines marked at the wing root and wing tube and apply the M3 x 18mm machine screw through the pre-drilled hole on top of the wing. ( please confirm the alignment of the hole by putting a.5mm diameter rod through the pre-drilled wing hole before applying the screw ) The hole on the wing tube is pre-threaded, do not over tighten the PM3mm screw, the set up is for future removal of the wing. 35mm 175mm Wing Tube d3xd7mm D1.5x508mm 175mm M3x18mm 95mm Step. Install the right wing to the fuselage by inserting the wing tube (now attached to the right wing) through the fuselage, then install the left wing. Top View.5mm PA3x18mm d3xd7mm.5mm Left Right Step 3. Make sure the wings are resting against the fuselage tightly. Locate the pre-drilled.5mm hole at top of left wing, and drill along with.5mm drill bit until it passes through the wing tube. Apply the PA3 x 18mm self-tapping screw. Note : It is recommended that the wing tube stays with the left wing. Removal of the wings could be acheived by removing the right wing machine screw, the right wing then the left wing with wing tube. If removal of wing tube from left wing is also required, it is recommended that instead of applying self-tapping screw in step 3, you pre-tap with M3 thread cutter and apply M3 machine screw. P.10

13 Control Throws Rudder 60mm 60mm Adjust the control throws as shown in the diagram. These throws are good for general flying. You can adjust according to your personal preference. Elevator 35mm 35mm Aileron 0mm 0mm 5 C. G. 85mm 3.3in The ideal C.G. position is 85mm (3.3in)behind the leading edge measured at where the wing meets the fuselage. In order to obtain the C.G. specified, add weight to the fuselage or move the battery position. Check the C.G. before flying. Warning! Important Safety Precautions # First time flyer should never fly by himself / herself. Assistance from experienced flyer is absolutely necessary. # Pre-flight adjustment must be done before flying, it is very dangerous to fly a badly pre-adjusted aircraft. # 1/5 PIPER J-3 CUBis specially designed to be powered by C or C engine, using a more powerful engine does not mean better performance. In fact, over powered engine may cause severe damage and injuries. # Make sure the air field is spacious, never fly the plane too close to people and never get too close to a running propeller. # If you find wrinkles on the covering as a result of weather changes, you can use hot iron to remove the wrinkles. Please begin with lower temperature setting and gradually raise the temperature until the wrinkles are gone. Too hot an iron may damage the covering. Don't use hot iron near the seams or edges, hot iron will melt the glue and shrink the covering at the same time, causing the seams to pull away. # Check and re-tighten up all factory assembled screws, use thread locker if necessary.

14 LINKAGE CONNECTOR HW & HW Drill mm hole at servo horn. Insert linkage connector into servo horn. Make sure shoulder of screw is cleared from servo horn. Add washer to reduce play if necessary. Shoulder Tighten up the round nut against the shoulder. Apply CA or permanent thread locker. After fastening the round nut, make sure that the linkage connector can rotate freely.

15 Usage of the transparent 3D template This transparent 3D template is used for position guidance of the actual cutting of the pre-painted cowling. 1 3 Simply cut the transparent 3D template to fit your engine and exhaust pipe, then slide onto the actual cowling and use as template to mark the openings required for final cutting.
