Dear customer,
Congratulations on your choice of a factory-assembled mo-
del aircraft from the robbe 
Modellsport range. Many thanks for placing your trust in us.
The model can be ready for the air when you have completed 
just a few simple procedures. 
Please read right through these instructions and the separate 
information sheets before attempting to assemble and fly the 
model, as this will make it much easier to complete the tasks 
required.
Please study the illustrations and the brief instructions 
to obtain a clear understanding of the individual stages of 
construction. All parts must be trial-fitted “dry” (without glue) 
before you reach for the glue. Assign the individual compon-
ents to the various stages of assembly.
All directions, such as “right-hand”, are as seen from the tail 
of the model, looking forward.
We constantly strive to update our products to reflect the la-
test developments. You can find details of technical improve-
ments and revised documentation on the Internet by calling 
up the appropriate product description at our website: www.
robbe.com.
The model
Not an everyday model; not just like all the others!
That's the Arcus V-tail EDF. 
A compact model glider with the characteristic sound of an 
EDF model jet. The model is equally suitable for the expe-
rienced pilot as well as the advanced beginner who is looking 
for an EDF trainer, or simply fancies flying something rather 
different for once.
The design and look of the Arcus V-Tail EDF are just as ex-
clusive as its power system.
The model can also be fitted with an optional rudder servo.
