Dear model airplane pilot,
we are pleased with your decision for our new
Xtra Fun II. The Xtra Fun II is a consistent
advancement of the predecessor model.
Together with Roland and Wolfgang Matt we
improved different details further: The horizontal
tail unit is now profiled and of plug-in-design.
Thereby the wirings of earlier versions are void.
At the same time we increased the stability of
the wings and the fuselage cell. Also the chassis
range was completely revised.
After we submitting the prototypes, detailed
tests had been done. We are happy presenting
you a model with outstanding flight
characteristics. By optimal weight - size
proportions you will find in the Xtra Fun II an
ideal and good-natured coach for aerobatics
and 3D Freestyle.
Please follow this building instruction carefully
and consider also our references of security and
the enterprise. Then you will be pleased by your
new Xtra Fun II.
Your 3W - Modellmotoren Team
Formed and plugable: New elevator of the Xtra Fun II

connected unequally in-hung to interior and -
exterior wing.
Use gasoline hose to secure clevis.
