Tech Notes
 
NOTES FROM OUR TECH DEPARTMENT

  The Dura-Trainer 40 has a 50" Wing-span and Includes Ailerons. The Trainer
has a longer nose and tail moments than the DuraPlane II for greater control.

**This is an ARF although it does require some covering. See Comments below**

INCLUDES: Motor Mount, Aluminum Landing Gear, Foam Wing w/Aluminum Spar, Aluminum Channel and Square PVC Fuselage, CA Hinges, Hardware, Wood Tail Set and Ailerons, Pushrods, and Wing Protector.

SPECS: Length: 44" CG: 3-5/8" aft of LE @ fuselage Wing Area: 500sq. in. THROWS: Ail: 3/8" up & down Wingspan: 50" Ele: 5/8" up 1/2" down Weight: 5.25lbs Rud: 1" left & right Wing Loading: 24 oz/sq ft Airfoil: Flat-Bottom, High Wing

REQUIRES: .40-.46 sized (2-stroke) engine and 4-channel radio w/four servos, prop, wheels, wheel collars, foam rubber, rubber bands, nylon strapping tape, fuel tank, spinner, low-heat covering, building and field equipment.

COMMENTS: Although this is listed as an ARF it requires covering the foam wing and the balsa surfaces, including the ailerons and tail feathers, with some kind of protective, fuelproof finish. Among the many model airplane covering materials available, Top Flite EconoKote film is recommended. EconoKote film requires a lower heat range to apply than other iron-on films, so it can be applied over the foam wing. It can also be applied to the wood tail surfaces as well. You can apply EconoKote film with a hobby heat sealing iron.
