RE: Extreme Flight Extra 300 or Aeroworks Extra 300

If you look at the specs for the EF Extra you'll see it's 87 inches long! That's about 10 longer than just about any other 50CC extra. That should make a great tracking plane for IMAC and it should...

RE: Extreme Flight Extra 300 or Aeroworks Extra 300

I have the PAU Extra 50cc and I'm not that happy with it. It is light but fragile, it was a pain to build, for example, the wing tube didn't fit in the wing, I had to get a smaller tube and sand the...

RE: 3D Foamy Trainer for 3S 2200 LiPo?

DeadStick,

Looks great, how do I get a hold of one?

It looks like they are not available yet, how did you get yours?

Is it possible to be a prototype tester?

3D Foamy Trainer for 3S 2200 LiPo?

I have quite a few 3S 2200 packs that I use for my Trex-450 and would like to use them on a larger outdoor 3D foamy trainer.

I'm looking for kits, arfs or just plans.

Any ideas?

RE: New 35cc Extra 300 QB!!!!!!!!!

Why is the Brillelli 46 so popular with this airplane and the DA-50 overkill?

There is no significant weight or displacement difference.

Buyers Remorse...

Just took delivery of a BME/PAU Extra 330L and I'm kind of regretting it.
