The engine on the V2 Flexible Tail requires some assembly. We have done this article to help.
In the package you will receive diagrammatical instructions that are very helpful as is the case with all Xtreme Production products. See below.

Below is all the parts you will receive in the pack. You will also need modeling glue, modeling knife or scalpel and tweezers.

The first thing to do is remove any burs from around the parts with a knife being careful not to cut into the parts. Then, assembly the engine parts as instructed in the diagram, use modeling glue to affix the parts together. Below you can see the two sections assembled.

In the pack there is a strip of mesh, cut into sections. Glue a piece of mesh to the engine (see below) making sure not to use to much glue this only needs a small dab of glue top and bottom to hold it in place. Once dried glue the vent surround over the mesh. Do the same on the other side.

Glue the two sections of the engine together and wait for it to dry. Clip the engine to the tail truss and fix the tail blades. (below)

Screw the whole tail to the Lama and affix the side buckets to the servos with the double sided tape (supplied). There you have it, a traditional appearance of Lama helicopter.
Extras.
Paint the engine to make it look less plastic and more realistic and paint the side buckets. There are many pictures of real Lamas on the internet to use as a reference or use your imagination.
