I have a friend that's involved with it. I don't own the plane and other than my friend, I have no connection with the company. However, I really want this plane! I think they will be here soon.

Heh I also spotted the bird yesterday on the site and asked the manufacturer about it. Apparently it was coinsidence that I stumbled onto the site right as they were putting it up. Still in test phase and going into production soon it seems. I think it looks awesome!!! Outta be a great seller if it performs anything like the Katanas. I love it! Can't wait to see more on it.

It looks like it could outfly the Katana, but there's only one way to find out. The price is $149 and the first shipment will be here in a month I think. Here's the URL: http://www.topmodelproduction.com/Extra260-P.htm It looks like there's a vid, but I'm having trouble with it, the website is fairly new, so maybe they don't have it up yet.

Looks great. That should be a very nice flying bird. RCMANIAC, I'll bet the only limitations on torque rolls will be the pilot!

Nah looks pretty standard to me? Looks like it's got most of the things the Katana's got going feature wise too. Nice servo lead channels the works. I couldn't get the video to work either so maybe it's not uploaded yet. Let's hope they get one going so we can see if this is worth fussing about.

Video will be done soon hopefully. There were more features added to final version like winglets, servo extensions, wheel pants, sullivan style tailwheel and graphics. Also a 2 piece wing with single internal wing bolt, no tabs.

When in doubt, always get a Mojo. In this case the Mojo 60.

I've seen Saito's on lots of .40 profiles, but that's a whole lot of motor for it as it's pretty light airplane.

well. the 11/15 ship date came and went--with nothing. Wonder how many people dropped the $10 advance purchase paypal, over to find out it was a ripoff! No response from website.
