Default Extreme Flight debuts the 58" Extra 300-E at SEFF

Chris Hinson of Extreme Flight RC plans to debut his latest electric offering... the 58" Extra 300-E. Also announced is the powerset... a new motor the Torque 4014/570 and a new Airboss ESC that features a Switching BEC.

Coming in at about 5.5 lbs with a 5s 3850 lipo, Chris says it's monster powered. A few more pics are available on their site: http://www.extremeflightrc.com

Looks like a really nice plane. The covering scheme doesn't look that great too me, too busy. But that's just my personal preference, I'm sure the plane is great.

I wish Extreme Flight planes were avalable directly in Canada. They are missing a big market here.

How will this plane work with nitro? I have a Saito .82 in a Fliton Extra that is starting to show some wear due to tons of repairs, and this might be the perfect home for it.

You put an 82 in there, and it's going to turn knots into the sky. I was going to put a .46 in there.

Here is an excerpt fromt he EF site "news" section:

We debuted our new 58 inch Extra 300 at SEFF. This 5.5 pound airplane is powered by the new Torque Revolution 4014T/570 which produces close to 1500 Watts, providing close to 270 Watts/pound! Can you say ballistic!?!? All this on a single 5S1P 3700 mah FlightPower Evo 25 battery. Production will begin in a few weeks and we expect to receive the first shipment around the end of the summer, along with the 50cc Extra.

And there is nothing wrong with that!



EF, PLEASE PLEASE show us some pictures of the structure. I gotta know if this is a glow candidate.

Will there be multiple color schemes available? I'm not sure how I like the scheme on the prototype.

Here is a neat video of it at SEFF. It apparently does very nice elevators.
