1.1. VMA-B191C Beaver 120+ ARF SemiScale ARF 120 in. Span - Aileron Extensions - Not Provided

Question: My assembly manual for the 10 foot Beaver #VMA-B191C makes reference to some aileron extensions. I did not get these. What's the story? Am I missing something?

Answer: Due to the wide variation in radio connectors, servos and tolerance for different lengths of extensions we have discontinued supplying aileron extensions. Modelers should follow their radio manufacturers recommendations regarding the use of aileron extensions.

1.2. VMA-B191C Beaver 120+ ARF SemiScale ARF 120 in. Span - Instructions Do Not Reflect Plug In Wing

The Beaver 120ARF has been updated to incorporate a plug-in semi-symmetrical wing. Some of the screws, washers etc in the instruction book are no longer included as they are no longer needed. The wooden spar joiner has been replaced by two long round aluminum tubes that mount the wings to the fuselage.

The CG Location has not changed. The CG is as stated and is approx coincident with the thickest part of the wing about 30% back from the leading edge.

Short Term... information has been published on our external Knowledge base and will be provided as an addendum sheet with Beaver 120ARF instruction books.

Longer Term... the instruction book will be amended to reflect the upgrade and changed hardware.

1.3. VMA-B190C Beaver 120+ ARF SemiScale ARF 120 in. Span - Older Version Without Tube Spars

The attached PDF contains important information about the original older version of the B190C Beaver 120ARF that had wood spar joiners and the wing located in a saddle in the top of the fuselage. This older model was superceded in 2004-2005 by the new B191C Beaver 120ARF that has two aluminum tube spars and a fuselage that is used with "plug in" wings.
