Default Need instructions!

I ahve bought a Kangke Astro Trainer H a little over 2 years ago and this kit came without instructions. The place that I purchased from has not been able to help me either. Could somebody steer me in the right direction so that some day I could possibly fly this plane.

Thanks in advance!

Hi

The plane you have is suitable to learn to fly.

Take it to a local club where somone can help you get it in a flyable state and teach you to fly it.

ARF's are not really considered as kits.

Hi

see what you mean now.

i think your questions need to be a bit more specific, some of it is common sense and some less obvious.

say how far you have got and what the next problem is.

Hi and thank you, here is where I am at: I have yet to install all the servos, tank any other electronics and ofcourse the engine. The wing or tail assembly is still apart so basically it is if i have just opened the box. I have sent an email off to Kangke USA and am now waiting for a reply. I would hope that they would be able to assist me as far as instructions would go. I would assume that this craft just can't be slapped together, and would need to be balanced and such, thus the wait for possible manufactures instructions.

Actually, after you have done a few ARF's most of them are pretty much alike with a few subtle variations that an experienced builder could overcome. Not trying to insult you or anything like that because I realize you simply are not to that point yet and instructions are needed. Even balance points can be approximated close enough for maiden flights with enough experience.
Hang on, hopefully Kangke will come through for you.

Best of luck on this. We'll be watching to hear what happens next so let us know please.

Hi again

I have drawn a diagram of the layout of how i would install the gear this should put the c of g which iv'e marked (at the thickest point of the wing) about right.

If the c of g needs further alteration it will probably need going further forward which you can achieve by putting the battery in the tank compartment of using a long engine mount or as a last resort adding some lead.
