26. Apply UHU-por to the undercarriage locating slots in the wing (this is a wet joint - don’t allow the adhesive
to dry out). Use plenty of glue - too much does no harm here. Now slide the undercarriage legs through the
undercarriage slot in the bottom fuselage section and into the undercarriage locating slots. Glue the
undercarriage legs in the undercarriage slots using plenty of UHU-por, and allow the glued joints to dry out
for at least one hour (preferably overnight - the longer the better). Don’t touch or stress the undercarriage
while the glue is setting.
27. The wheel axles (35) can now be glued in the wheel axle supports: apply a small drop of high-viscosity
(thick) cyano to the wheel axle support, then push the wheel axle into the unit,
ensuring that the axle is
positioned parallel to the ground.
28. Glue the wheel spat mounts (36) to the wheel spats (37) using UHU-por.
Take care to make a mirror-
image pair (different left and right).
29. Slip the main wheel (38) onto the wheel axle, then fit the wheel spat and mount onto the wheel axle to a
depth of about 1 mm. Apply a drop of thick cyano to the hole in the axle support, and push the spat fully
onto the axle. Repeat with the second wheel.
30. Mount the variable-pitch propeller on the motor shaft.
Setting up the model
•
Control surface travels (for the first few flights it is sensible to limit the control surface travels to about 60%
of the values stated below. Do this using Dual Rates, and assign D/R switches if required):
Elevator 50 mm up, 50 mm down
Rudder
50 mm right, 50 mm left
Aileron
45 mm up, 45 mm down
•
Centre of Gravity position: about 75 mm from the wing root leading edge.
•
First flight:
charge the batteries and check all the model’s working systems. Carry out a range check. Wait
for a day with as little breeze as possible (flat calm is ideal). Now you are ready for the model’s first flight.
Ask an experienced launcher to give the Extra a gentle hand-launch. The motor has plenty of power, and
the model does not need a powerful launch. Adjust the trims if necessary, and take your time to get to know
the aeroplane’s handling characteristics before trying out aerobatics for the first time.
