Section 1: Assemble the Wing
Carefully remove the contents of the Xtra Easy 2™ RTF kit. It is
recommended that you charge the transmitter and receiver bat-
teries for 24 hours prior to flying your model.
Step 1. Remove each wing from its protective plastic bag.
Remove the pieces of tape that hold the ailerons in place for
shipping. The hinges in the Xtra Easy 2 Trainer have already
been glued in place during manufacturing. Check the ailerons
for freedom of movement by flexing them up and down several
times.
Step 2. Locate the aluminum wing tube and carefully slide it
into the opening in one of the wing halves. The fit may be snug,
so use a twisting motion while inserting the tube. There is a
short metal pin located near the trailing edge that will key into
the opposite wing panel and keep the wing from rotating around
the wing tube. Carefully slide the other wing half onto the wing
tube. Align the metal pin with its hole and press the wing
panels together.
Step 3. Locate the wing joiner tape and apply it to the top and
bottom of the wing along the joint. Start at the top of the trailing
edge and wrap it around the front of the wing and to the bottom
trailing edge.
Step 4. The aileron servo lead has been tied around the link-
age for shipment. Untie the servo lead to free up the aileron
linkage. Note that the lead has been labeled with a piece of
tape; do not remove this tape. One of the aileron linkages has
already been connected to the aileron and secured with a small
piece of tubing (clevis keeper). This is done to prevent the
clevis from opening during flight.
Connect the other aileron linkage to the aileron and snap the
clevis in place. Slide the clevis keeper over the clevis to secure
the linkage to the aileron.
