Introduction
The New Micro Fusion has takes those comments made by our customers and develops them into the
Fusion package. These comments along with hours of testing and development we have improved the
strength, durability and overall performance of the model. For those who owned the original Fusion you will
note the changes, some of them are only minor, such as the length of Tail moment and others like the
battery hatch provide a better all round model. We listen to our customers to improve our products, so if you
have anything you wish to share please let us know.
The Evolution Fusion has been designed predominantly for the Fun Fly enthusiast and the club flyer. The
Fusion will loop on the spot, roll in the blink of an eye and inspire confidence as it remains rock solid and
stable. This model that has been designed to be highly manoeuvrable, but also to be attractive with style
and flair.
The laser cut parts simply slot together to provide a lightweight structure without compromising strength.
The Fusion is simple and satisfying to build for the amateur and experienced builder.
Each kit contains a comprehensive hardware pack that includes the closed loop systems, hinges, hatch latch
and horns to name but a few, we even include fuel tubing (Glow Version)!
The Evolution Fusion has been designed to meet the needs of the Fun Fly competition pilot in an attractive
package. We hope that you have as much fun building and flying it as we have had developing it!
Building Recommendations
Check all parts from the box to ensure that they are present; if not then please contact us at the e-mail
address at the back of the instructions. We do from time to time make mistakes!!
Ensure that you use a completely flat base on which to build the model, this should be large enough the build
the wing 50” (1270mm) x 16” (400mm) as a minimum.
Read through the instructions before starting to build, understand each step before applying glue.
The glue detailed in the instructions is for a guide only, this is what we used for the prototypes, it is at the
builder discretion which glue is used, but ensure that it is suitable for the intended purpose. Always read the
application instructions to ensure you achieve a strong joint. Depron is a foam material; Standard Cyano will
attack and melt it, always use foam safe glue. Always read the safety instructions supplied with the glue.
Take your time building the model, build a straight and strong model, this will ensure the model will fly well!
Enjoy. Building is part of aero modelling!
This radio controlled model is not a toy. It can cause serious injury to the operator, public and property if
misused or abused. Ensure that you read all the instructions supplied with this kit and instructions provided
with the engine and radio control system or any other components purchased separately carefully. Also
make sure that any parts bought separately are suitable for their application.
The kit contains small and potentially sharp parts, keep away from children.

Building Instructions
Fin and Rudder
Take the six parts that form the Fin and Rudder (Parts 12, 11, 6, 8, 7 and 9), trial fit before gluing together
using Cyano or white wood glue. With the supplied strip of 4.5 x 6mm (3/16” x 1/4”) cut to length to form the
centre ribbing pieces. Mark a centre line on the Rudder leading edge and chamfer to a 45° angle with a
razor Plane.
Place the parts on a bench like so Glue together Add the two ribbing pieces
With a sharp knife cut the slots for two hinges 10mm (3/8”) from the top and bottom. This gap should be
parallel for the full length of the Rudder. Cut 10mm (3/8”) strips from the supplied Mylar hinge material and
insert into the hinge slots; 50% in the Rudder and 50% into the Fin. Ensure that you get at least 45° free
movement either way. Do not glue the hinges in at this stage! Cover both parts with your chosen covering
first.
Sand all parts to a smooth Finish and round off the leading edge of the Fin ready for covering. !!! Warning.
Ensure that you are wearing an appropriate mask for sanding balsa and are in a well ventilated area. We
recommend sanding in free air (outside).!!!
Tail Plane and Elevator
Take the five pre-cut parts (Parts 3(2), 4(2), 13, 17, 18, 19, 20 and 23) which form the Tail Plane and
Elevator, trial fit, ensure the tips are at 90° to the leading and trailing edge before gluing with Cyano or white
wood glue. With the supplied strip of 6 x 9.5mm (1/4” x 3/16”) cut to length to form the eight ribbing pieces,
glue in place with Cyano or white wood glue. Do not glue the Elevator to the Tail Plane; theses should be 2
separate pieces!
With a pencil mark the centre line of the leading edge of the Elevator and chamfer to a 45° angle with a razor
Plane ready to receive the hinges.
Tail Plane parts laid out Glue Tail Plane and Elevator parts separately.
Rib pieces inserted

Wit h a sharp knife cut the slots for four hinges 10mm in from either end and evenly spaced, ensure that the
Elevator sits centrally on the Tail Plane. Cut 3/8” (10mm) strips from the supplied Mylar hinge material and
insert into the hinge slots, 50% in the Elevator and 50% into the Tail Plane. Ensure that you get at least 45°
free movement either way. Do not glue the hinges in at this stage! Cover both parts with your chosen
covering first.
Sand all parts to a smooth Finish and round off the leading edge of the Tail Plane ready for covering.
!!! Warning. Ensure that you are wearing an appropriate mask for sanding balsa and are in a well ventilated
area. We recommend sanding in free air (outside).!!!
Fuselage
Lay the two Fuselage sides (Parts 1(2)) on the work bench ensuring that you have a left and right hand side.
With a thin layer of epoxy or white wood glue attach the 1mm (1/32”) ply doubler (Part 32(2)). Weigh down
to ensure that the parts cannot ‘curl’ and to allow dry.
Using the 6mm (1/4”) triangular fillet, glue with Cyano or white wood glue to the outer edge of the Fuselage
shown hatched below, excluding the wing seat, section above the Tail Plane and small rear section between
the Fuselage bottom and Tail Plane. Make cuts in the fillet to allow it to follow the bottom curve of the
Fuselage. Set the triangular fillet 3mm (1/8”) back from the front of the Fuselage to allow F1 (Part (27)) to sit
flush with the Fuselage side; see the diagram on the next page.
Cut servo holes in F2 (Part 29) to suit the servos you have chosen for this model. Carefully mark the
position of F2 in the Fuselage to ensure that your chosen servos have the depth to fit, and the higher (front)
servo fits below the wing seat. The rear of F2 lines up with the rear of the wing seat. The front servo sits on
the two pieces of 6 x 6mm (¼ x ¼) spruce supplied in the hardware pack. These can be glued in place now
or when fitting the servo later.

Glue the excess triangular fillet to the underside of F2 and dry fit between the Fuselage sides, ensure that F1
fits in the 3mm (1/8”) recess left at the front. If you are building the electric version carefully drill holes at the
top and the bottom of the former to allow air to enter the Fuselage for cooling.
F1 should be placed with the pre cut hole set towards the bottom of the Fuselage, once glued in place
chamfer the top and bottom to follow the Fuselage sides.
With F1 and F2 in place the Fuselage sides should taper back so that the triangular fillet at the rear just
touches. Once satisfied that the part fits correctly glue in place using epoxy. We have found this easier by
gluing F2 to one side of the Fuselage first and allowing to dry before offering the other side and inserting F1.
Ensure that F1 is 90° to the centre line of the Fuselage.
We have shown standard servos fitted in the Fuselage, but recommend that you use a good quality
mini/micro servo to reduce weight. Ensure the mini/micro servo is of the same or better specification as a
standard servo.
Once the epoxy has set, the top rear deck (Part 22) to the Fuselage, ensuring the rear Fuselage remains
square and the cut out for the Fin remains along the Fuselage centre line.
With epoxy glue the front ply (Part 26), centre balsa (Part 2) and rear ply (Part 28) undercarriage plates into
position.
With the supplied the sheet of 3mm (1/8”) balsa plank the front top deck of the Fuselage. If you are building
the glow version continue to plank the whole of the bottom. The planking grain should run from side to side
to provide maximum strength.

If you are building the electric version take the battery hatch floor (Part 33) and place the tab under the ply
U/C mount and mark the ends as shown below.
Remove the section of triangular balsa and plank with the 3mm (1/8”) from this point to the back of the
Fuselage.
Plank the bottom of the hatch floor (part 33) with 3mm (1/8”) balsa except for the tab that fits under the U/C
mount. Glue the supplied washer as shown below. Insert the magnet in to the hatch magnet support (Part
25) and glue the 1mm (1/32nd) disc on the upper side. Glue the hatch magnet support at the rear hatch
opening so that the magnet projects into the opening and the magnet locks onto the washer.
Sand the Fuselage to shape rounding off the top and bottom decking and sand the top deck at the front
down to 1mm (1/16”) where it meets the wing. !!! Warning. Ensure that you are wearing an appropriate
mask for sanding balsa and are in a well-ventilated area, we recommend sanding in free air (outside).!!!
Lay the Tail skid (Part 24) on the bottom of the Fuselage and mark the distance from the rear, cut a slot
3mm (1/8”) wide to accept the skid along the centre line of the Fuselage. Slot the Fin in from the top and
ensure that the parts mate within the Fuselage. Glue scrap pieces of ply either side of the Tail skid slot to
prevent the Tail skid wire rotating as in the picture below. Ensure that they are not too large to slide into the
Fuselage.
