Composite-ARF Extra 330L (2 x 2m)
This is a list of the things you may need to get your Composite-ARF Extra 330L 2 x 2m in the
air. Some of them are mandatory, some of them can be chosen by you. What we list here are
highly recommended parts, and have been thoroughly tested.
1.
Power servos (min. 5 ). We recommend JR 8411's for the ailerons, elevators & rudder.
2.
Throttle servo for gas/methanol motor. Any standard servo will do (eg: JR/Graupner 4041)
3.
Aluminium Spinner 82 - 86 mm dia (3.25 - 3.5"), eg: Tru-Turn.
4.
Main wheels 65 - 70mm (2.5 - 3"). Kavan Light or Dubro wheels are recommended.
5.
Engine DA-50, or electric Hacker 50 or Plettenberg Xtra 25-13. These are recommended
engines for your Extra 330L. The instructions refer to these engines several times, but you
could use any other 35 - 50cc gas engine, like a Zenoah 38 or ZDZ 40 - or a big 4 stroke
(eg: OS140/160, YS140/16).
6.
Exhaust system, muffler or minipipes if using gas or methanol engine. C-ARF can supply
headers and mini-pipes for the DA-50 as an option.
7.
Speed Controller and Flight Batteries if using Electric power
8.
High quality servo extension cables, with gold connectors. High quality
receiver and ignition switches, 'Y' leads, ceramic/ferrite chokes etc.
9.
Receiver battery. Either one or two 1200 -1800 mAH NiCad packs.
10.
Fuel tank (500 - 700 ml) with gasoline stopper for gas/methanol motor. We use Dubro.
11.
Cable ties in various lengths.
12.
Propeller, to suit motor choice.
Did you read the hints and warnings above and the instructions carefully?
Did you understand everything in this manual completely?
Then, and only then, let's start assembling your Composite-ARF Extra 330L.
If not, please read again before you start the assembly.
The new Composite-ARF Extra 2 x 2m is not quite so 'ARF' as our other 'planes, as there are
so many possible different building options - especially for the motor choice - and a special
option pack is available for Electric power.
However, as usual, we have included a full set of CNC milled wood parts and all the hardware
required for the completion of all the Landing gear, Flying surfaces and control surfaces. Also
included are a generic motor firewall (6mm plywood), with support former, exhaust mounting
bulkhead, Fuel tank support, rudder servo plate and throttle servo mount, which can be used
for installation of your motor choice, and/or modified as necessary. This instruction manual
shows the typical installation of a DA-50 using these parts.
This still allows us the offer a fully-composite moulded aerobatic 2m span plane, painted in the
moulds, with such a high pedigree for a truly incredible price. As technology advances and
customer requirements change Composite-ARF will continue to design and manufacture new
aircraft and follow our customers wishes and the latest trends.
We hope you will enjoy your 2 x 2m Extra and look forward to feedback on the different power
units used in this unique aircraft.
