  • 3D Hobby Shop YAK55, ASSEMBLY -- Locate the wheels, wheel axles and axle nuts, wheel collars, and wheel pants. Fit the wheel onto the axle. Install the wheel collar to retain the wheel onto the axle, as shown. Use the axle nut to affix the wheel/axle/pant assembly onto the gear leg, as shown, use included wrench to hold axle. -- Install the landing gear legs into the fuselage with the shorter of the provided 3mm screws as shown below.

  • 3D Hobby Shop YAK55, -- Using a sharp hobby knife, remove the covering on both sides of the fuselage as shown below, for the wing spar tube, the aileron servo wire access, anti-rotation pin and wing retaining screw. -- Remove the covering over the horizontal stabilizer slot, on both sides with a sharp hobby knife. ! ! ! ! ! !

  • 3D Hobby Shop YAK55, -- Slide the horizontal stabilizer into the fuselage slot. Use a ruler to measure each side to make sure that it is centered. -- Locate the carbon wing-spar tube and slide it into the fuselage. Measure each of the rear corners of the stabilizer to the wing tube as shown. Adjust the stabilizer until each side measures exactly the same to correctly align the stabilizer. -- Apply thin CA glue to the joint of the horizontal stabilizer and fuselage as shown. Allow the thin CA to run along the joint and wick into the joint. NOTE: it is not necessary

  • 3D Hobby Shop YAK55, -- Locate the elevator half that has the joiner rod attached -- Slide the elevator onto the stabilizer, inserting the elevator joiner rod through the fuselage cutout as shown. DO NOT GLUE THE HINGES YET -- Make sure the elevator can flex up 45 degrees and down 45 degrees easily. You can easily make a tool to measure 45 degrees by folding a piece of paper as shown. ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! -- Once you are satisfied that your elevator can move easily 45 degrees up and 45 degrees down, put two drops of thin CA glue on each hinge to glue the elevator permanently to the stabilizer as shown.

  • 3D Hobby Shop YAK55, -- Next place a small piece of tape on the elevator and stab as shown to hold the elevator perfectly straight and level to the stabilizer. ! -- Now install the other side elevator without glue. Make sure that the elevator is straight and level to the stabilizer like the first elevator. If not, if the elevator shows a slight twist, you can take a little time and sand or trim the slot that the elevator joiner rod fits into to correct this. A slight twist in the elevators will not affect flight performance, but it may bother you, so this is the right time to correct it if necessary. -- Once you are satisfied with the alignment of the elevator, rem

  • 3D Hobby Shop YAK55, -- Using THIN CA glue, go over the motor box assembly, applying a small amount of glue to all the seams. This is the highest-stress area of the airframe, and we want to make it as strong as possible. -- Your airplane includes a pre-drilled firewall with pre-installed blind nuts that fit Omega, Torque, Hacker, and other popular brands of brushless motors. If your brand of motor uses a different bolt pattern, use your hobby knife to carefully remove the blind nuts and plywood circle spacers from the back of the firewall, and then re

  • -- Making sure to slide the cowling underneath the taped pieces of paper, slide the cowling onto the front of the plane as shown below. -- Holding the cowling in place with tape, take your time to align the cowling on the fuselage. Measure vertically and horizontally from the edge of the front of the cowling to the motor to ensure that the cowling is centered as shown. -- When t

  • 3D Hobby Shop YAK55, -- Insert the rudder into the fuselage, make sure it swings 45 degrees in both directions, and glue the hinges with a couple of drops of thin CA from each side as shown. -- Slide the tail wheel bracket over the wire and screw the wood screws into place through the bracket as shown below. Make sure that the rudder swings freely. -- Remove the screws to apply thin CA to the screw holes. -- Screw the bracket back into place after the thin CA has cured. ! ! ! ! !

  • 3D Hobby Shop YAK55, -- Install the tail wheel onto the wire, making sure the wheel rotates freely tighten the set screw with a 1.5mm hex tool as shown below. ! ! -- Insert aileron into wing panel making sure to align the end of the aileron with the wing tip. -- Making sure that the aileron can deflect 45 degrees in each direction freely and glue the hinges with a couple of drops of thin CA on each side. NOTE: it is recommended to glue the inside hinge, re-check the aileron motion, and then glue the hinge near the wingtip followed by the hinges in the middle. ! ! !

  • -- With a sharp knife, clear the covering over the slot for the control horn in the aileron as shown. -- Test fit the control horn into the slot. Remove the horn and add a bead of thick CA into the control horn slot. Apply some thick CA to each side of the lower portion of the control horn and insert the horn into the aileron as shown.

  • -- Install the aileron servo into the wing as shown below. Inside the servo hole there is a piece of string added for convenience to attach your servo wire with tape to help guide the servo wire to the wing root. -- The pushrods for the Yak are assembled as shown below. At the control horn the ball link is screwed onto the threaded end of the pushrod 5-6 turns. With the 2mm screw,

  • 3D Hobby Shop YAK55, -- Slide the horn through and center it to get an idea as to where it sits, slide out, add thick CA to the center of the horn (make sure to get CA into the holes) on both sides and slide back in making sure it’s centered properly before the glue cures. Once in place, put a few drops of thin CA around the horn on each side. -- Please examine the following pull-pull diagram closely -- When attaching the servo connectors to the arm, do not tighten the nut fully, but leave it a bit loose so the connectors can rotate freely. Use a drop of CA glue on the nut to prevent it from loosening in flight. -- Start by attaching the cables to th

  • 3D Hobby Shop YAK55, ! -- Mount the rudder servo as shown below. -- Insert the pull-wire ends into the servo connectors on the rudder servo as shown, just barely poking through the servo connectors, and tighten down the set screws with a 1.5mm hex wrench. Note that the cables cross each other once inside the fuselage, making an “X” shape. -- Spend time to find the exact correct length of the pull-pull wires before attaching the pull wire ends at the front. The system provides approximately .25 inch of adjustment on each wire when completed, so your assembly must be accurate. NOTE: it is helpful to tape the rudder in the cen

  • 3D Hobby Shop YAK55, -- With a sharp knife, remove a panel of covering underneath the fuselage as shown to allow cooling air a place to exit the aircraft. ! -- Mount your receiver and radio equipment into the fuselage.

  • 3D Hobby Shop YAK55, OPTIONAL ASSEMBLY Side Force Generators Side force generators (SFG) are optional on this airframe and simple to install and remove. -- Locate the small rectangular holes near the tip of the wings and clear the covering with a sharp hobby knife as shown. ! ! ! ! -- On the ends of the wingtips, clear the covering over the two screw holes as shown. -- Slide the tabs on the Side Force Generators into the holes above and below the wing, so that the taper of the SFG

  • 3D Hobby Shop YAK55, leading edge is pointing forward as shown. -- Insert the nylon bolts into the holes and tighten until snug with a flat head screwdriver. ! ! ! ! ! ! Cowling Detail Another optional feature of this kit is the cowling detail that resembles the radial cooling vanes seen on the full scale Yak-55. Note that the use of the plate does restrict some cooling air entering the cowling to cool the motor, ESC and batteries. So depending on your climate you may need to open just a panel or two for cool climates, or for hot climates it may be best to leave it off the plane for maximum cooling. -- C

  • SETUP INFORMATION Center of Gravity The recommended Center of Gravity range is 2.75 to 3.25 inches from the leading edge of the wing root. For maiden flight, the plane should ideally have the Center of Gravity at the designer recommended 2.75 inches. After several flights, you can and should adjust to find your perfect, personal CG location. ! Control throws Low / Precision Rate
