Yesterday I received a large envelope from the guy who gave me my Tipo 825.I say gave because he would only take $125 for the plane, even though he knew about this thread. I finally have the complete instructions for this bird.

Jeff (Ace913) gave me copies of the paperwork that came with his bird, but I assumed that there was more. Except for the handwritten pages there are 5 more pages and 2 pages of the wing and stab detail, plus information on how to make the anhedral stab adjustable and information on making the anhedral stab elevator conection internal. Very Cool info.

I read thru the papers quickly and a note caught my eye about marks on the fuse.

Well I have to say I’ve looked at the fuse many times and today I finally saw/felt them. They are only on the side without the indent for the pipe.

I feel like such a shmuck for never finding them until now.

I always have been looking on the pipe side. Nobody said they were only on one side.

In his papers there is also a template for the stab cutout.

There is a + at the rear and a – at the front, on the fuse locating the correct stab position.
