Default RE: New Product - Electric Extra 330L RTF 3D kit

I've had a chance to fly it some more now.....

WATCH THE WING MOUNT AT THE LEADING EDGE!!
I would advise anyone bying this plane to take off the wing mount from the wing and fuse & re-attach with epoxy before you fly. After only about 1.5 hours I noticed the wing looked a little loose. On inspection, I found that the plastic mounts are only attached with a trace of some sort or glue that looks a lot like a hard silicone. It was literally hanging by a thread! The wing would have certainly parted company with the fuse on the next flight........ I would also add some tape to the TE where it mates with the fuse. This will help support the plastic mounting screw.

I must say though that for the price I am still hugely impressed by the performance; it has plenty of grunt and is very positive on the controls. It does need a dual rate on the TX as it is very twitchy to land on with the throws set high for 3D.
