RECOMMENDED TOOLS & MATERIALS
Adhesives - You will need two types of adhesives for this ARF -
Epoxy and Instant (cyanoacrylate) adhesives.We recommend that you
purchase both 5-minute and 30-minute epoxy to cut down on
assembly time,but you can get by with only 30-minute epoxy if time
is not important.You will also need a small bottle of both “Thick”and
“Thin”instant adhesive.
Tools - Model assembly can be much easier if the proper tools are
used. Therefore, we have included in our checklist to the right,
a complete listing of all the tools we used to assemble our prototype
models. As you will notice, many household tools can be utilized
during construction.
Engine - The Thunder Tiger PRO-61 or 91 is the ideal engine for this
airplane.It is a quiet running engine that is easy to start and require no
special break- in period,is very easy to maintain,and will last for years.

need to purchase in order to get your engine running and your plane
in the air.
