2. You must assemble the model according to the

instructions. Do not alter or modify the model, as doing so

may result in an unsafe or unflyable model. In a few cases

the instructions may differ slightly from the photos. In those

instances the written instructions should be considered

as correct.

3. You must take time to build straight, true and strong.

4. You must correctly install all R/C and other components so

that the model operates correctly on the ground and in the air.

5. You must check the operation of the model before every

flight to insure that all equipment is operating and that the

model has remained structurally sound. Be sure to check

clevises or other connectors often and replace them if they

show any signs of wear or fatigue.

6. If you are not an experienced pilot or have not flown this

type of model before, we recommend that you get the

assistance of an experienced pilot in your R/C club for your

first flights. If you're not a member of a club, your local hobby

shop has information about clubs in your area whose

membership includes experienced pilots.

We, as the kit manufacturer, provide you with a top quality,

thoroughly tested kit and instructions, but ultimately the

quality and flyability of your finished model depends on

how you build it; therefore, we cannot in any way

guarantee the performance of your completed model, and

no representations are expressed or implied as to the

performance or safety of your completed model.

Remember: Take your time and follow the instructions to

end up with a well-built model that is straight and true.

LITHIUM BATTERY HANDLING & USAGE

WARNING!! Read the entire instruction sheet included with

this battery. Failure to follow all instructions could cause

permanent damage to the battery and its surroundings, and

cause bodily harm!

• ONLY use a LiPo approved charger. NEVER use a

NiCd/NiMH peak charger!

• NEVER charge in excess of 4.20V per cell.

• ONLY charge through the "charge" lead. NEVER charge

through the "discharge" lead.

• NEVER charge at currents greater than 1C.

• ALWAYS set charger's output volts to match battery volts.

• ALWAYS charge in a fireproof location.

• NEVER trickle charge.

• NEVER allow the battery temperature to exceed 150° F [65° C].

• NEVER disassemble or modify pack wiring in any way or

puncture cells.

• NEVER discharge below 2.5V per cell.

• NEVER place on combustible materials or leave

unattended during charge or discharge.

• ALWAYS KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.

DECISIONS YOU MUST MAKE

This is a partial list of items required to finish the XPD-8 ARF

that may require planning or decision making before starting

to build. Order numbers are provided in parentheses.

Radio Equipment & Electronics

The XPD-8 ARF requires a transmitter that supports elevon

mixing, a micro receiver, one 6" [152mm] servo extension, and

two micro servos (9g or less). If you already have a transmitter

you are going to use to fly the XPD-8 ARF, you can get the

receiver and servos separately:

❏

Futaba

R114F 4-channel FM micro receiver w/o crystal

(low band – FUTL0442, high band – FUTL0443)

❏

Futaba FM single conversion receiver crystal for R114F

(low band – FUTL62**, high band – FUTL63**)

❏

(2) Futaba S3110 micro servo 7.7g (FUTM0046)

❏

(1) 6" [152mm] servo extension with "J" connector

(FUTM4506)

Or, you can purchase a complete system (including

transmitter) specially packaged for park flyers. If purchasing

a complete system, the Futaba 3FR Skysport single-stick

radio is suitable. It comes with a micro receiver and two

Futaba S3108 micro servos. The transmitter is also

equipped with a rechargeable NiCd battery pack:

❏

Futaba 3FR Skysport single-stick radio system including

transmitter, receiver, and servos (FUTJ53**)

❏

(1) 6" [152mm] servo extension with "J" connector

(FUTM4506)

Note: The Futaba S3108M and S3110M have the same

specifications as the above mentioned servos, but are

equipped with the Futaba micro plug. These are suitable for

the XPD-8 ARF. However, a receiver with micro plugs such as

the Futaba R124F (low band – FUTL0438, high band –

FUTL0439) and a micro plug servo extension (FUTM4508)

must also be used.

An 11.1V 910mAh lithium-polymer battery pack and suitable

charger are also required. Although there are different

battery packs and chargers available that will work with the

XPD-8 ARF, the economical choices recommended by

Great Planes are:

❏

Great Planes 11.1V 910mAh LiPo (GPMP0605) battery pack

❏

Great Planes ElectriFly

™

DC peak charger (GPMM3010)
