The manual is sparce at best with very little if any descriptive text. If you have ever built a Kyosho ARF, you will recognize this construction guide. It looks like the same person wrote it, (or drew it) The nice thing is that the plane is so easy to put together, you almost don't need a guide, and the drawings while not descriptive, are detailed enough to guide you along in the construction.

The first thing I did was cut a small hatch in the bottom front of the fuse. I did this for two reasons, first, I wanted access to the RCS electronics without digging in from the center of the fuse. Secondly, it made it easier to work on the firewall which I wanted to reinforce because of the gas engine.

The firewall is plenty sturdy, but I glassed it anyway. I also used about 1 oz. of 2 hour eposy thinned out 30/70 with alcohol and brushed it on the forward hatch and wing saddle area. I usually reinforce the wing hold down, but this one is very beefy, so I just coated it for good measure.

(don't be fooled by the discoloration of the wood in the pic, I had just epoxy coated it when I took the pic....)
