panel lines and / or rivet-heads on the fuselage can be picked out with a fine felt-tip 
pen if you so wish. Cut out the individual decals and name placards and apply them 
to the model, referring to the illustrations on the kit box lid and in the building instruc-
tions. The model is completed by sticking the canopy (45) to the fuselage. 

 

Balancing 
To  check  the  Extra’s  CG  please  assemble  the  model  completely,  ready  to  fly,  but 
with the LiPo battery disconnected. The correct CG position is 80…85 mm aft of the 
wing  root  leading  edge.  Adjust  the  battery  position  as  required  to  balance  the 
aeroplane correctly. You can check the CG simply by supporting the model under the 
wing on two fingertips; it should balance level at the point indicated. 
 
Flying 
For the first flight please wait for a day with little or no breeze. The ideal flying site is 
a  flat,  closely-mown  grass  area  without  obstructions.  Assemble  the  model  com-
pletely,  and  check  that  all  the  control  surfaces  are  at  neutral.  Allow  the  model  to 
take  off  from  the  ground,  facing  directly  into  any  wind.
  Initially  apply  minimal 
aileron and elevator corrections to keep the model in a steady, straight climb. Fine 
adjustments are possible using the trim sliders below and adjacent to the transmitter 
sticks.  Always  land  the  model  flying  directly  into  wind,  with  the  motor  idling  but  not 
switched off. Flare out just before touch-down with careful use of up-elevator.  
 
Here at GRAUPNER Modellbau we hope you have many enjoyable flights with your 
new                                                                                                LEKI EXTRA 330SC 
 
 
 
Replacing the motor 
 

 

 
If the motor should ever need to be replaced, it can be removed by pushing it into the 
inside of the model. The new motor can be pulled into place from the front using the 
motor installation aid (26).
