Yes, the new xtras come with cowl that doesn`t have precut holes.

Went fly yesterday, first 5 were just perfect. Then on last flight the right wheel come loose with axle. I continued flying and enjoing the last minutes because i knew that landing will be rough and i may not be able to fly several days because of repairing.
Lined up above a grass field and let the plane run out of speed. The noise, when it hit the gorund really cut to my ears. I was prepaired for the worst, but only thing that broke was the landing gear plate. Damn, i think that was a luck.
