That would be the next ones on my list of things to do. Wife just does not know yet!

Great job. I love my Extra 260 and only wish I could fly it as well as you do!

thanks for the comments. I need to make another video but the 260 has been down for a while. I need to replace the throttle servo. It locked up last time I flew.

get a sim, its as simple as that. You will crash litterally tons of planes in the process of learning rolling harriers if you don't practice first on a sim. I have probably around 300 hours of sim time and only then have i been able to perform rolling harriers withen 5 feet of the ground, and even still its cost me two planes good luck

70 as well as 46..

I have been trying with the Katana 70 V2 at height its very forgiving and easy to recover from trouble it seems its extra size makes it easier to to judge control inputs but Diego sure makes the Extra 260 P 46 seem slow and easy to do Rolling Harriers just seems like mines not so well set up or maybe its just my lack of skill ..........LOL

yea, I had no idea Diego was that good, most all of the videos I've seen are Dan.
I'd like to see a video of those two flying the same plane back-to-back, a "style" comparison of sorts.
Btw... Kevin, your looking good too... I'm jealous

On subject...
I've been looking hard at this 260, very tempting.
I've got a 46fx that needs a ride, and this 260 looks (in the video) to be my kind of plane, mostly the part where it can recover from ANY attitude

Nevermind all of the banter and politics in this thread.... Is the plane a good one overall? (we know it can fly great, but what about durability & quality parts)?
I'm really tempted to go for it just because Diego/Dan like it - I doubt they would endorse crappy planes with bad manners, let alone make a video of it.

All i can say is for you to try it yourself I am on number 2 myself now, i had a dodgy old switch killed my first doing silly stuff on the deck but then again a switch failure your gone no matter where you are in the air ! It is really a different plane to fly and at first i was very uncomfortable with it because it is so different to fly compared to all the clones out there definately a handfull for a beginner but once you get a few tanks of fuel thru it and get the C of G to your personal preference it starts to come alive and you find it induces you to really throw it around and usually at speed Its a ball to fly!

Yeah Diego sure can fly and i still get a kick outa watching that video for the 1000000 time LOL
