SPARE PARTS

Spare parts can be ordered directly through Aeroworks.

Please use the part numbers and item descriptions listed in

the kit contents list above to order.

1. Your model is covered with Ultracote™ covering.

In case of repairs, the colors are:

Yellow/Blue Scheme

Bright Yellow #872

Midnight Blue #885

White #870

ULTRACOTE™ COLORS

4 52” Aeroworks Extra 260 Freestyle Assembly Manual

1. Open your kit slowly and take care not to dam-

age any parts of the kit. Remove all parts from

their plastic protective covers for inspection.

Before doing any assembly or installation of any

decals it is very important to re-shrink or re-

tighten the already applied covering. Due to the

shipping process, heat and humidity changes

from different climates, the covering may be-

come lose and wrinkle in the sun. If you take the

time to re-tighten the covering, you will be re-

warded with a long lasting beautifully covered

model.

TIGHTENING AND

RESHRINKING THE

COVERING

2. Using your covering iron with a soft sock, gently

apply pressure and rub in the covering. If any

bubbles occur, your iron may be to hot. Reduce

heat and work slowly.

3. If bubbles persist, use a small pin to punch holes

in the bubble to relieve trapped air and reheat.

4. Use your heat gun with extreme caution. Take

care not to apply too much heat to one area for

long periods of time. This may cause the trim

colors to over shrink and pull away leaving un-

sightly gaps on the color lines. The trim stripes

are especially vulnerable to over shrinking.

5. Go over all seams and color overlaps with your

sealing iron.

52” Aeroworks Extra 260 Freestyle Assembly Manual 5

6. Go over all hinge gaps ensure there are no

wrinkles. Excessive wrinkles in the hinge

line can cause binding and or damage the

covering.

7. Use covering iron near seems and areas of ex-

posed wood. Over heating of these areas can

cause the covering to pull.

CHECKING GLUE JOINTS

1. Go over all seams and glue joints with thin CA,

this will ensure your model lasts for many sea-

sons to come.

Note: Even if you can visibly see glue on all glue

joints it is still recommended that the joints be

reglued. Due to changes in humidity during

the life of the aircraft glue joints can separate,

it is always recommended that the glue joints

be checked before each flying session.

2. Use thin CA on the front canopy mounting tabs

as shown. DO NOT

install canopy on the fuse

until glue has fully cured. Failure to do so may

cause canopy to be permanently glued to the

fuse.

AILERON ASSEMBLEY

1. The ailerons and wings come pre-hinged but are

not glued

. The builder must glue the hinges in

place using thin CA.

2. Gather the following items for aileron assembly:

Required Parts

◊ 1 - Wing panel w/Aileron

◊ 5 - CA hinges

Required Tools and Adhesives

◊ 10 - Medium T Pins

◊ 1oz Bottle Thin CA Glue

◊ Straight Edge

3. Center the hinge in the pre-cut hinge slot using

T-pins. Make sure that the hinge is straight to

prevent binding.

6 52” Aeroworks Extra 260 Freestyle Assembly Manual

4. After all 5 CA hinges have been placed in the

wing slide the aileron onto the hinges. Once

again it is very important that the hinge stay

straight.

5. Use a straight edge to make sure that the aileron

sits flush with the wing-tip.

6. Remove the T-pins from each hinge. Deflect the

aileron before gluing to ensure full deflection is

possible. Using a new bottle of thin CA apply 3-

4 drops on each side of the hinge. Be careful not

to over soak the hinges with CA this can cause

failure.

Note: Always use a fresh bottle of CA. Old CA will

not cure and can cause failure.

1. Gather the items shown below for the installa-

tion of the aileron servo and control horn.

Required Parts

◊ 1 - Carbon control horn- Single

Required Parts-Not Included

◊ 1 - Aileron Servo w/ mounting hardware

◊ 1 - 3/4” Servo Arm

◊ 1 - Aeroworks Safety Clip

Required Tools and Adhesives

◊ Small Phillips screw Driver

◊ 80 Grit Sandpaper

◊ 1oz Bottle Thick CA Glue

AILERON SERVO

INSTALLATION

7. After the CA has fully cured, check to make

sure the hinges are secure by gently pulling on

the aileron and wing. If you find any loose

hinges, apply more CA to the hinge and recheck.

52” Aeroworks Extra 260 Freestyle Assembly Manual 7

2. Use 80 Grit Sandpaper to scuff the carbon con-

trol horn where it will be glued to the aileron as

shown below.

3. Test fit aileron control horn before gluing, adjust

fit if necessary.

4. Apply Thick CA inside the aileron control horn

slot.

5. Place aileron control horn into the precut slot.

Wipe away any excess glue that may come out

at this time.

7. Attach the 3” servo extension to the servo wire

and secure using an Aeroworks Safety Clip.

6. With aileron centered in natural position, ensure

the mounting hole of the control horn is centered

on the hinge line as shown.

8. Fasten the pull string from the servo hole to the

male plug of the servo extension.

9. Pull aileron extension through root end of wing.

10. Install servo in servo well with the output arm

toward the leading edge of the wing. Install

servo with mounting hardware provided with the

servo.

SFG mounting tabs may require light sanding if

they are to tight. If the mounting tabs are too

loose a thin piece of tape can be added to tighten

them in the mounting slots.

leading edge. This locator dowel must key into

the locator block in the fuse. This will ensure the

front of stab is centered in fuse.

5. Slide the stab into the fuse cutout as shown. Be

careful not to damage the front locator pin while

sliding the stab in place.

52” Aeroworks Extra 260 Freestyle Assembly Manual 11

8. Mark the location of the stab at the fuse at this

time.

9. Use “T” pins to temporarily hold the stab in

place as shown.

10. Attach a “T” pin at the corner of each aileron at

the wing tip. Make sure the “T” pins are placed

in the exact corner of each aileron.

11. Using a tape measure, attach the end hook to the

“T” pin in the aileron and measure to the trailing

edge of the stab at the tip as shown. Repeat this

step for the other side of the stab. Ensure that the

measurement is identical on each side. If the stab

is not straight as compared to the wing some

adjustment may be necessary.

6. Make sure the locator dowel is fully engaged

into the locator block by sliding the stab forward

in the cutout. This will help to hold the front of

stab in place.

7. Measure the stab at the trailing edge on both

sides of the fuse as shown. Make sure the stab is

centered on the fuse.

14. After the CA hinges have been placed in the ele-

vator slide the hinges into the stab. Once again it

is very important that the hinge stay straight.

15. Remove the T-pins from each hinge. Check ele-

vator throw before gluing to ensure full deflec-

tion is possible. Using a new bottle of thin CA

apply 3-4 drops on each side of the hinge. Be

careful not to over soak the hinges with CA this

can cause failure.

Note: Always use a fresh bottle of CA. Old CA will

not cure and can cause failure.

16. Use 80 Grit Sandpaper to scuff the carbon con-

trol horn where it will be glued to the elevator as

shown below.

17. Test fit elevator control horn before gluing, ad-

just fit if necessary.

18. Apply Thick CA inside the elevator control horn

slot.

12. Once satisfied with the stab alignment, the stab

can be glued in place as shown. Use thin CA

with an applicator tip to wick CA into the stab

joint as shown. Do not use accelerator for glue

as this will weaken the glue joint.

13. Center all 6 hinges in the pre-cut hinge slots us-

ing T-pins. Make sure that each hinge is straight

to prevent binding.
