2,5 m (100 inch) 7-10 Cell Electric Glider
Assembling Instructions
BINGO is intended for both the amateur and professional
flyer. A good aerodynamic design, easy and simple installation, plus high
quality of manufacture insure minimal prep time and great flight features - itfs
all BINGO!
BINGO requires some assembly, but the high standard of prefabrication make
this a breeze. These instructions are kept to a minimum, since most flyers
will may choose to install equipment in their own tried and tested way.
WING TIPS- composed of a carbon/kevlar/balsa gDh box,
covered with ORACOVER, plus a carbon spar and joiners.
FLAPS and AILERONS are complete and hinged with wipers covering up the flap and aileron slot
FUSELAGE
(composed of three parts)
- a pre-painted and laminated removable carbon nose cone.
- a pre-painted
and laminated carbon fuselage.
- a high tech carbon Tail Boom
STABILIZER - a carbon/balsa gVh type covered with ORACOVER,
with a carbon spar and hinged elevator/rudders.
ACCESSORY

Carefully unpack the BINGO and familiarize yourself with the varios parts.
Please note that there are two different types of brass control horns. One type
has a button top and will be used for the two ailerons, while the other two have
no button on top, and will be used for the flaps. This allows the flaps to be
angled forward to line up with the hinge line and thus allows more travel.
Equipment installation diagram. ![]() Servos installation. Drill holes for aileron/flap horns. See illustration 5. Insert the horns and
fix them in place using epoxy. Mount the servos in the wing and also fix in
place using epoxy. Adjust the lengths of the aileron and flap push rods and
connect them to the servos, see illustration 5. The servos may now be covered by
taping the servo covers in place, again noting a right and a left cover.
![]() Rudder/elevator. Cut out slots in the rudder/elevator for the plastic horns and CA them in
place (illustration 6). Mount the servos into the stabiliser and epoxy in place.
Adjust the length of the rudder/elevator pushrods, bend as shown in illustration
7. Connect the servos with the pushrods to the rudder/elevator. Use tape to
secure the servo covering plates over the servos. ![]() Motor mount. Drill the mounting holes in the motor mount as per motor manufacturerfs
instructions. Slide the motor into the removable nose cone. Power battery plate mount. You will need a balsa sheet 5...6 mm thick, 2 mm thick plywood and Velcro.
Cut the balsa and plywood to 120 x 45 mm. Epoxy the plywood on top of the balsa
sheet. Once dry shape the balsa, as per illustration 8. Epoxy the Velcro onto
the plywood. The other half of the Velcro is adhered to the rechargeable
battery. Epoxy the mount into the fuselage as per illustration 9.
![]() Center of Gravity.The location of the CG is approximately 60-70 mm back of the leading edge of
the wing. The CG location can be regulated by moving the power battery location
forward or backwards in the fuselage, as per illustration 10. ![]() | |
