tions and the appendix. If you ever dispose of the model, please be sure to pass on the com-
plete operating instructions to the new owner.
Introduction
The Graupner/SJ HoTT-FAN is a particularly attractive RC model aircraft which
offers an excellent performance in the air. The original carton can be used as a con-
venient method of storing, protecting and transporting the model.
The HoTT-FAN is fitted with a highly efficient retractable ducted fan power unit which
gives the model an excellent climb rate, at the same time generating a pleasant
sound reminiscent of a turbine. The model is based on Bob Carlton’s Super Salto,
and this combination simulates the full-size aircraft very closely. The original machine
is powered by a PBS TJ-100 turbine.
Please take the time to read through these operating instructions before attempting
to fly the model.
