SUGGESTION
To avoid scratching your new airplane, do not unwrap
the pieces until they are needed for assembly. Cover
your workbench with an old towel or brown paper,
both to protect the aircraft and to protect the table.
Keep a couple of jars or bowls handy to hold the
small parts after you open the bag.
NOTE:
Please trial fit all the parts. Make sure you have the
correct parts and that they fit and are aligned properly
before gluing! This will assure proper assembly. The
TIGER MOTH GP/EP Size 30-35CC SCALE 1:6 ¼
ARF is hand made from natural materials, every
plane is unique and minor adjustments may have to
be made. However, you should find the fit superior
and assembly simple.
The painted and plastic parts used in this kit are fuel
proof. However, they are not tolerant of many harsh
chemicals including the following: paint thinner, C/A
glue accelerator, C/A glue debonder and acetone. Do
not let these chemicals come in contact with the
colors on the covering and the plastic parts.
SAFETY PRECAUTION:
• This is not a toy
• Be sure that no other flyers are using your radio
frequency.
• Do not smoke near fuel
• Store fuel in a cool, dry place, away from
children and pets.
• Wear safety glasses.
• The glow plug clip must be securely attached to
the glow plug.
• Do not flip the propeller with your fingers.
• Keep loose clothing and wires away from the propeller.
• Do not start the engine if people are near. Do not
stand in line with the side of the propeller.
• Make engine adjustments from behind the propeller
only. Do not reach around the spinning propeller.
PREPARATIONS
Use a covering iron with a covering sock on
high heat to tighten the covering if necessary.
Apply pressure over sheeted areas to
thoroughly bond the covering to the wood.
INSTALLING THE AILERONS AND Flaps
1. Test fit the ailerons to the wing with the hinges.
If the hinges don’t remain centered, stick a pin
through the middle of the hinge to hold it in
position.

CENTERED
2. Apply six drops of thin CA to the top and bottom
of each hinge. Do not use CA accelerator. After
the CA has fully hardened, test the hinges by
pulling on the aileron.

INSTALLING THE AILERONs SERVOS
1. Install the rubber grommets and brass eyelets onto
the aileron servo.
2. Using a modeling knife, remove the covering from over
the pre-cut servo arm exit hole on the aileron servo
tray / hatch. This hole will allow the servo arm to pass
through when installing the aileron pushrods.
3. Place the servo into the servo tray. Center the servo
within the tray and drill pilot holes through the block
of wood for each of the four mounting screws
provided with the servo.
4. Using the thread as a guide and using masking
tape, tape the servo lead to the end of the
thread: carefully pull the thread out. When you
have pulled the servo lead out, remove the
masking tape and the servo lead from the
thread.
5. Place the aileron servo tray / hatch into the servo
box on the bottom of the wing and drill pilot
holes through the tray and the servo box for
each of the four mounting screws. Secure the
servo tray in place using the mounting screws
provided .
6. Repeat step # 2 - # 5 to install the second aileron
servo in the opposite wing half.
Make certain the hinges are adequately secured with glue. If
they come loose in flight accidents may result.
Secure nylon hinges with instant glue, being careful
not to glue the wing and airleron together.
Apply instant glue (CA glue, super glue). Align the center line of main wing with aileron.
