The Extra 300 is a wonderful airplane. I have not promoted it much so not many people know about it.

A lot of people don't understand that an Extra 300 is the same plane as an Extra 260 except it has a longer canopy. That's really the only difference.

Guys who have been flying this plane and its parent 41% Extra 300 tell me that on a scale of 1 to 10 it's a 9.5 for IMAC and a 10+ for 3d. It isd probably the finest 3d plane on the market, and that comes from several customers.

It has pocket hinges, CF wing and stab tubes, cowl ring, all the latest goodies.

Status: online 		Not at all, the Sukhoi is also a very nice plane, it uses basically the same wings and hinging. The difference is the Sukhoi is a little smaller and more agile, whereas the Extra is graceful and smooth. Both still retain the extreme control authority needed for excellent 3D.

Military discount is a permanent thing, but keep in mind it's just on planes. Some of the other stuff I don't even make 10% on it.

last question i'm sure with the servo package you have for this plane would it be possible to substitute the 8711 for a 5955 rudder servo and if so any cost differance?

Certainly, just add $15.
