PRINTING & ASSEMBLING MANUAL EAGLE NOTE: Slicing only works with CURA! You can find the STL data at www.planeprint.
PRINTING THE PARTS – PRINTING PROFILES You may wonder why this 3D model is suitable exclusively for CURA right? The most important thing about small RC model airplanes is always the ratio of size to weight. The lighter a model is, the better its flight characteristics and also the flight time is significantly increased. With our unique design process, we manage to make Weights relevant items in a true 1-wall printing process for the outer skin but also for the filling offer.

ASSEMBLING MANUAL Basic information Gluing the parts To glue the fuselage and wing parts well, use medium-liquid CA adhesive. First check whether the parts go well together. Then apply a lot of CA glue to the part with the connections and all surfaces that will touch later (except the bowden tubes). Put the parts together and align the parts perfectly. If glue comes out, wipe with a cloth. Then spray activator spray on the glue points.
Basic information Installation of the TPU hinges First insert the hinge into the movable flap and add a drop of liquid CA adhesive into the gap. Wait for the glue to drain completely, then spray the activator on it. Then put the flap in the wing until the flap touches the spacers and put a drop of CA glue on the hinge. Wait again for the glue to run in, and then spray the activator on it. Do not use too much glue, the flap must move easily! These spacers ensure the correct gap distance.

Tailplane assembly – step 1 IMPORTANT The rudder is enormously important for a safe flight and must not be smaller! First, please print the file Rudder template.pdf from the download folder. Insert the rudder into the slot of the fuselage and tighten it with two short tapping screws.
Fix the steel wire to the fuselage with a drop of CA glue. medium l. Steel wire Ø1*150mm Steel wire Ø1mm IMPORTANT The elevator must be easily movable! Magnetic cover fastener Stick the four 5*5*5mm neodymium magnets into the holes provided. IMPORTANT Make sure that the magnets are in the correct orientation to each other and do not repel each other! The cover is inserted into the opening at the head and fixed with the magnets at the back.
Wing fastening Screw the TPU tensioners into the wings, attach the wings to the fuselage and clip the tensioners into the frame. Carbon rod Ø8*40mm eagle-Parts-flex-profile4.stl eagle-Parts-profile1.stl Carbon rod Ø8*920mm Head attachement The head is screwed on from the inside with four tapping screws 2*8mm and can be exchanged for the motor head.
Motor mounting SAFETY FIRST Use appropriate screws for motor mounting to ensure safe operation! Make sure the prop runs smoothly and does not generate vibrations. Check regularly that the motor mounting is absolutely tight! eagle-Motorhead-profile3.stl eagle-Motormount-profile1.

RC components Attach the Controller, receiver and battery with self-adhesive Velcro.
SETTINGS FOR FLYING After installing the electronics and setting up the transmitter, check that the control surfaces are aligned correctly. Set the transmitter trim to zero. The ailerons should be aligned with the trailing edge of the wing tip. Then align the flaps with the ailerons. The elevator should be aligned with the horizontal stabilizer and the rudder to the vertical stabilizer. Change the position of the moving parts by changing the length of the linkage from the servo arm to the control horn.
Markings on the rudder up Normal flight down Center of Gravity (CG) The aircraft must balance precisely 66 mm/2.59 inches behind the leading edge (see markings on the fuselage). For the first flight we recommend to move the center of gravity about 5 mm/0.2 inches further forward.
Flight timer Flight time will vary depending on the battery size. Expect 5 minutes under normal circumstances; however, it may be possible to fly for much longer. It is a good idea to be conservative with the flight timer until you gain experience with your airplane. TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS WINGSPAN 2000 mm/78.7 inches LENGHT 806 mm/31.
