Assembly Manual
Please take a few moments to read this instruction manual before beginning
assembly. We have outlined a fast, clear and easy method to assemble this
aircraft and familiarizing yourself with this process will aid in a quick, easy
build.
Please read the following paragraph before beginning assembly of your aircraft!
THIS IS NOT A TOY! Serious injury, destruction of property, or even death
may result from the misuse of this product. Extreme Flight RC is providing
you, the consumer with a very high quality model aircraft component kit,
from which you, the consumer, will assemble a flying model. However it is
beyond our control to monitor the finished aircraft you produce. Extreme
Flight RC will in no way accept or assume responsibility or liability for
damages resulting from the use of this user assembled product. This aircraft
should be flown in accordance to the AMA safety code. It is highly
recommended that you join the Academy of Model Aeronautics in order to be
properly insured, and to operate your model at AMA sanctioned flying fields
only. If you are not willing to accept ALL liability for the use of this product,
please return it to the place of purchase immediately.
Extreme Flight RC, Ltd. guarantees this kit to be free of defects in materials
and workmanship for a period of 30 DAYS from the date of purchase. All
warranty claims must be accompanied by the original dated receipt. This
warranty is extended to the original purchaser of the aircraft kit only.
Extreme Flight RC in no way warranties its aircraft against flutter. We have
put these aircraft through the most grueling flight tests imaginable and have
not experienced any control surface flutter. Proper servo selection and linkage
set-up is absolutely essential. Inadequate servos or improper linkage set up
may result in flutter and possibly the complete destruction of your aircraft. If
you are not experienced in this type of linkage set-up or have questions
regarding servo choices, please contact us at info@extremeflightrc.com or
770-887-1794. It is your responsibility to ensure the airworthiness of your
model.
A few tips to ensure success
1. We are very pleased with the level of craftsmanship displayed by the
builders in our factory. Through hundreds of grueling test flights
containing maneuvers that no aircraft should be subjected to, our
prototypes have remained rigid and completely airworthy. However, it
is impossible for us to inspect every glue joint in the aircraft. Take a few
minutes and apply some medium CA to high stress areas such as servo
mounting trays , landing gear blocks, anti rotation pins, etc.
2. Having survived the journey half way around the world while
experiencing several climate changes, it is not uncommon for a few
wrinkles to develop in the covering. Fear not! These are not
manufacturing defects, and are easily removed with a little bit of heat.
Use a 100% cotton tee-shirt and your heat gun and heat the covering
while gently rubbing the covering onto the wood with the t-shirt. Seal
the edges of stripes with an iron. Be careful not to use too much heat as
the covering may shrink too much and begin to lift at the edges. Take
your time, and a beautiful, paint like finish is attainable.
3. By the time your aircraft arrives at your door step it will have been
handled by a lot of people. Occasionally there are small dings or
imperfections on some of the surfaces. An effective method to restore
these imperfections to original condition is to use a very fine tipped
hypodermic needle to inject a drop of water under the covering material
and into the ding in the wood. Apply heat to the area with a sealing iron
and the imperfection will disappear. Deeper marks may require that
this process be repeated a couple of times to achieve the desired result,
but you will be surprised at how well this technique works.
4. DO NOT SKIMP ON SERVOS! Use the recommended servos or
equivalent to ensure that you have enough power to adequately actuate
the control surfaces.
5. Use a high quality epoxy for installing the composite control horns. We
highly recommend the use of Pacer Z-Poxy 30 minute formula.
We have used this glue for many years with zero failures.
6. Your aircraft is built using very modern construction techniques and is
very light weight for its size. As with any high performance machine,
regular inspection and maintenance is a must. While disassembling your
aircraft after a flying session, pay close attention and inspect glue joints,
linkages and loose covering to be sure the airframe is sound. A few minutes
spent doing this will help maintain airframe longevity.
Congratulations on your purchase of the Extreme Flight RC
2 meter Vanquish!
The Extreme Flight 2 meter Vanquish is our attempt to provide the pattern
community with a very competitive, low cost alternative to the multi-thousand
dollar composite airframes currently dominating the competition circuit.
Properly assembled and set up the Vanquish can hold its own in any of the
classes against the aforementioned high dollar ships.
The Vanquish is loaded with unique features, including first rate useable
hardware and components and thorough instructions to ensure a trouble free
assembly and set-up. Weight saving components are used throughout, such as
carbon fiber wing and stab mounting tubes, carbon fiber landing gear,
titanium pushrods and carbon fiber tail wheel assembly. Wing and stab
adjusters are provided for precision incidence adjustment.
The Vanquish is intended to be powered by our Torque Silver Bullet F3A
motor or an equivalent 2600-3000 Watt power system running a lightweight
10S LiPo battery set up.
We have spent a great deal of time and effort to provide you, the
discriminating aerobatic enthusiast, with the highest quality, most complete
package possible. We are very proud of the end result of our labor and wish
you great success with the assembly and flying of your Extreme Flight RC
Vanquish!
Let's begin!
Stab and Elevator Assembly
Parts and tools needed for this
1. Locate the horizontal stabilizer/elevator assemblies as well as the composite
control horns and base plates from the elevator hardware package. Use a
sharp #11 blade to make a cut in the covering over the 2 slots for the elevator
control horns on the bottom of the elevator surface.
2. Insert the 2 control horns into the base plate and trial fit the horns into
the slot and make sure they seat properly against the base and elevator
surface. Score covering around the base plate with X-acto knife and lift the
covering away from the elevator to expose the balsa underneath.
3. Scuff the portion of the G10 control horns that will be inserted into the
elevator with sandpaper and insert them into the base plate.
4. Apply 30 minute epoxy to the slots and thoroughly coat the horns and
base plate bottom. Reinsert the assembly into the elevator and wipe away
any excess epoxy with a paper towel and denatured alcohol.
5. Place a 3mm bolt through the horns to help insure proper alignment and
set aside to dry. Repeat for the other elevator half.
6. Place the elevator back on the stab, making sure the hinges are centered
between the elevator and stab. Deflect the control surface to full deflection.
Use a fresh bottle of thin CA and a fine tube applicator to apply a couple
drops to each hinge. Flip elevator over and wick a few drops onto the other
side of hinge. Ensure that both sides get a few drops of CA. Repeat this
process for the other stab/elevator .
7. Cut away the covering around the servo horn opening on the bottom of the
stab with a sharp #11 blade.
