Default Need ARF instructions that are missing..

I am looking for assembly instructions for a Hobby Shack ARF Air Master 40T . I have had it stored for over 13 years. The kit is new In box but it appears I took the instructions out at one time to review and now they are absent. Any help appreciated.

If you can't find the instructions ~~ just get hold of someone that builds all the time and they will be able to figure it out. Shouldn't be a big deal if it's an ARF . ENJOY !!! RED

[8D] Like Red Head said , the assembly of most ARF planes is so straightforward that the instructions are usually pretty generic ; "Mount servos , bolt on motor , velcro in the ESC" and so on .

The two "must have" pieces of info that you need are the CG , and the control throws . If either of those are not set right , It'll fly horribly , once , and meet an untimely end . If you can't come up with the entire instruction sheet , maybe some nice fellow RCer who owns that same model (I don't) will post the CG and throws for ya ...

Someone that builds a lot will be able to set up a " trainer " without the instructions, in fact they can probably set up most planes without all the info.. One flight and they will know where to go next .

We have a lot of "snowbirds " here that buy planes from who knows where and then have to get someone to help set them up , there are seldom instructions and most of us aren't going to spend weeks looking for them, besides the people want to fly now not 2 weeks from now.

Find a REAL builder and flyer and trust them to do the right thing.

Now if it's a monster scale plane or super aerobatic etc etc then you need more info and proper set ups. ENJOY !!! RED

No worries, hobbyshack actually has the instructions or someone there does and they are willing to copy and mail to me. Hobby Shack rules!
