Before starting assembly Before starting the assebly of your AngelS 30E, remove each part from its bag and protection for a prior inspection. Closely inspect the fuselage, wing panels, rudder, and stabilizer for damage. If you find any damage or missing parts, contact the place of purchase.

Glue carefully the hinges in the stabiliser with some drops of thin CA.
step 5 Once satisfied with the alignment, glue carefully with thin CA the stabilizer at the fuselage. Section 5 – elevator servo & control horn installation step 1 Locate the following items included in the hardware pack, servo extension 400mm long and servo. step 2 Than install the servo hardware (gommets and eyelets) and locate the servo into the fuselage.
step 3 Drill using a 1,5mm drill bit, and install the servo into the fuselage using a Phillips screwdriver. step 4 Glue the fibreglass horn with medium CA into the elevator. Than install the hardware and make the final adjustment as per picture. Section 6 – rudder servo & control horn installation step 1 Locate the following items included in the hardware pack, servo extension 400mm long and servo.
step 2 Than install the servo hardware (gommets and eyelets) and locate the servo into the fuselage. step 3 Drill using a 1,5mm drill bit, and install the servo into the fuselage using a Phillips screwdriver. step 4 Glue the fibreglass horn with medium CA into the elevator. Than install the hardware and make the final adjustment as per picture.
Section 7 – landing gear & wheels installation step 1 Locate the following items included in the hardware pack. step 2 Install wheel and wheel pant as per pictures.
step 3 Locate the landing gear on the fuselage and fix it with the 3 screws included in the hardware pack. step 4 Test fit the L.G. Lift Generator and his alignment with the fuselage.

Control throws Please, follow carefully the recommended linkage setups for ailerons and elevators.
¾ 140mm is good for pattern flying. ¾ 150mm is good for 3D flying. Use the Flight Power battery pack, moving it forward or backward, to achieve the correct balance. A Flight Power 3s 2150 for more agility and a 3s 2500 for precision and sports flying. Range test your radio • Before fly, be sure to range check your radio as manufacturer’s instruction manual of you radio-system recommand. • Double-check all controls (aileron,elevator, rudder and throttle) move in the correct direction.
