Summary of Contents for Extreme Flight RC Speed Freak E-Outlaw

  • Page 1 E-OUTLAW High Speed Delta Wing ARF ©Copyright 2016 EXTREME FLIGHT RC, Ltd.
  • Page 2 Thanks for your purchase of the Speed Freak Outlaw Delta wing ARF. Designed by 9 time NCFFA champion Jerry L. Smith of Paducah Kentucky, the Outlaw is a very unique high performance aircraft that possesses a very wide flight envelope and is capable of some very interesting maneuvers unique to this design.
  • Page 3 Tips for Success-Please read before beginning assembly!!! 1. Read the instruction manual thoroughly before starting assembly. 2. We are very pleased with the level of craftsmanship exhibited by the workers in our factory. However, these are mass produced models. As with any ARF, take a few minutes to go over the model and add CA to high stress areas such as the firewall, servo mounts or any joints that appear to need more glue.
  • Page 4 Assembly 1. First let’s install the lower vertical fin. It’s much easier if this is installed before gluing on the upper vertical fin and rudder. Test fit the fin in position. Glue the lower fin in place with 30 minute epoxy, making sure it is aligned properly.
  • Page 5 2. Once the lower stab is dry, flip the wing over and we’ll install the top vertical fin. 3. The vertical fin has a series of tabs and notches to add rigidity and allow for easy alignment of the vertical fin. Trial fit the fin in place to insure proper alignment. Once satisfied glue the fin in place with 30 minute epoxy.
  • Page 6 4. Next let’s assemble the forward portion of the vertical fin and top hatch. Use a sharp hobby knife and metal straight edge to remove the covering from the top of the hatch where the forward portion of the vertical fin will mount. 5.
  • Page 7 6. Slide the elevons into position and onto the hinges and secure with thin CA. Make sure to center the hinges in their slot before gluing, and leave enough of a gap to ensure maximum deflection. Once dry seal the hinge gap with a strip of covering or Blenderm tape.
  • Page 8 8. Electronically center your servos and place the servo arms on the output shaft and secure with the supplied screws. We highly recommend the use of the Dubro XL Super Strength servo arms for best alignment with the opening in the top of the wing. Use the manufacturer supplied hardware to mount your servos to the servo hatches.
  • Page 9 9. Place the servo hatch into position, being sure to route the servo wire into the radio compartment through the fiberglass tube that is pre-installed in the wing. Secure the hatch with the provided screws, one at each corner. I highly recommend installing the screws then removing them and the hatch and putting a single drop of thin CA into each hole to harden the threads.
  • Page 10 10. Use the manufacturer supplied hardware to mount the rudder servo in the interior wing rib as shown with the output shaft toward the front of the plane.
  • Page 11 11. Now let's install the control surface linkages. Locate the 3 sets of triangle shaped control horns and bases, pushrods, ball links, clevises and screws.
  • Page 12 12. Use a straight edge aligned with the protruding servo arm to determine location for the elevon control horns to be mounted. Place the triangle shaped horn in place and drill through the control surface at the location of the 3 holes. Use the provided screws to secure the control horn to the surface and thread them into the base plate on the bottom of the surface.
  • Page 13 13. Thread a clevis onto one end of the pushrod and a ball link onto the other end. Secure the clevis to the control horn with the provided screw and secure the ball link to the servo arm with the 2mm bolt and nut. The distance from the hinge line to the pivot point should be the same as the distance from the servo output shaft to the location of the ball link on the servo arm for best mechanical set-up.
  • Page 14 14. The rudder linkage assembles and is installed the same way. Screw in the control horn connector so that the linkage does not interfere with the movement of the elevons and cut off the excess portion of the bolt.
  • Page 15 15. Now let's mount the motor. If using the recommended Xpwr T3520 the supplied aluminum standoffs will make installation a breeze. Other makes of motor may require different length standoffs. Locate the motor mount package within the hardware kit which will include 4 long black 3mm socket head cap bolts, 4 nylon insert locknuts, 4 aluminum standoffs and 4 washers.
  • Page 16 16. Install the ESC on the tray behind the motor with double sided tape or Velcro as shown. 17. Here is a picture showing where we installed our receiver. There is plenty of room in the rear of the interior to install your receiver as you see fit.
  • Page 17 18. Use a sharp hobby knife or soldering iron to remove the covering over the air exit holes on the bottom of the wing. This is very important to insure proper cooling of the power system. 19. There are 4 nylon skids included in the hardware package. These are to be installed to help protect the bottom of the Outlaw during landing.
  • Page 19 20. Apply a strip of adhesive backed Velcro to the battery tray and secure your battery with a Velcro strap. Make sure it is secured well!! This completes the assembly process! The CG range for the Outlaw is 11.75 inches to 12.25 inches measured forward from the rear edge of the center fixed portion of the trailing edge of the wing.
