manuals
The SEA FURY is a model of the
well known English piston-engined fighter aircraft which set a speed record from
London to Rome in 1949. Even to this day, examples of the SEA FURY are still
flown in the renowned Reno Air Races.
Our model is finished in the current colour scheme worn by the September-Fury
which is flown in the Unlimited Class at Reno.
The model is of conventional all-wood construction. The three-part wing is
joined using a pair of strong wooden braces. When the model is assembled, the
wing is placed on the wing saddle and the two front dowels engaged; two screws
are then fitted at the trailing edge to retain it. The tailplane and fin are
permanently glued to the fuselage. Two different methods are used to provide
slop-free control surface linkages: the servos for the ailerons andlanding flaps
are installed immediately adjacent to the control surfaces, while the proven DSS
system (Direct Steel System) is employed for rudder and elevator. Assembling the
model simply involves gluing the tailplane and fin to the fuselage, joining the
wing panels, and installing the glow motor and the RC system.
With a 20 cc four-stroke engine the SEA FURY produces an excellent performance
in the air, with very nicely balanced response to the controls.
The model can be landed very slowly if the landing flaps are lowered.
