Please read the following paragraphs 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. 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(or the appropriate model code for your region). It is highly recommended that you join the Acade-

my 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 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.

Special notes on the 67” Extra 260 aircraft:

The 67” Extra 260 is super-high-performance 3D and XA aerobatic machine. It is perfectly matched to the

T-Motor AM670 motor and AM116 ESC with T-motor 18x8 carbon prop. This is the conﬁguration we used in

development testing.

Be sure to use a premium, very high quality servo, such as the Theta 989, Savox SV-1261MG, or MKS HV-747.

Please read through this guide before beginning assembly to familiarize yourself with the tools and materials.

1. Installing control horns: All of the control horns on your aircra install in the same way. Locate the

correct control horn for each surface. Prep the horns by lightly scung the gluing area (the part which

will go into the control surface) with sandpaper or an emery board. Test t the horn and cover plate

without glue to make sure it goes all the way into the surface as shown. To permanently install the horn,

place medium CA glue into the slot, insert the horn fully and rmly into the slot, and then add a few

drops of thin CA for extra insurance as shown. Clean up any spilled CA with acetone. Allow to dry.

2. Installing main landing gear: Attach the carbon landing gear to the fuselage with screws as shown,

use blue Loctite (or other medium-strength threadlocker) on these screws. Note that there is a

“front” to the landing gear and when installed, they sweep slightly forward.

Locate the fairings, test t them, and then premanently attach them to the landing gear (not the

fuselage) using a generous amount of “Goop” or other rubberized adhesive. Allow to dry.

Locate the axles, attach to the landing gear as shown with washer and locking nut. Note there is

a at spot on the axle to engage the wheel collar set screw. Install the wheel and wheel collar, use

loctite on the collar set screw. Install the wheel pant with screw and loctite as shown.

3. Installing the horizontal stab and elevators: Test t the stabilizer without glue. Make sure it fully

inserts into the fuselage as shown. Make sure you have it right-side-up. When you have the sta-

bilizer perfectly tted, glue it in place with thin CA glue as shown. Clean up any spilled CA with

acetone.

Locate the tail ller piece. Fit it as shown. When it is perfectly aligned, apply thin CA glue as

shown. Clean up any spilled CA with acetone.

4. e rudder is retained with a wire. Place the rudder in position and install the wire from the bottom as

shown.

5. Install the tailwheel as shown using hex-head wood screws. Install the phillips-head wood

screw as shown into the rudder to hold the tailwheel tiller. Make sure the tailwheel can easily

swing with the rudder. e tailwheel assembly retains the rudder hinge wire in place.

6. Attach servo wire extensions to your servos and use tape or a wire lock to make sure they do not be-

come disconnected in ight. Install the servos in the positions and orientations shown. Center your

servos using your radio or a servo tester, then install your arms. Install the linkage as shown using

screws, washers , locking nuts, and tapered spacers as shown.

7. e 67” Extra 260 is congured for easy installation of the T-motor AM670 power system. Oth-

er systems will install similarly. Mount the motor X-mount to the rewall as shown, use Loctite.

Attach the motor to the X-mount as shown. Mount the ESC to the mounting pad on the bottom

of the motor box with zip-ties as shown. Neatly run the wires and retain them with zip ties.

8. Attach the cowl to the fuselage with screws, use loctite. Here we have added optional Extreme

Flight decorative aluminum washers. Adjust and tighten the prop mount and make sure you have

a small amount of clearance (approx 2mm) between the spinner backplate and cowl. NOTE: if you

are new to high performance aerobatic aircra, your motor points 2.5 degrees to the RIGHT to

balance torque and prop forces. is is by design and is correct.

NOTE: For safety, never connect your ight battery on your workbench with the prop installed.

Take the time to remove the prop when connecting the battery for setup work.
