I have the Extra 260 from Nitroplanes and it's an awesome plane! Flies great. I love it. I replaced the hardware that came with it though. I also have the CMPro Giles 202 V2 and it's a great plane as well - the covering is cool looking but it's difficult to see top from bottom in the blue sky- it flies great! Nitroplanes has some great planes and some not-so-great ones. Fortunately, I've had good experiences with Nitroplanes.

Yeah that GMP Giles 202 V2 is a pretty good deal for what you get for the price.

I'm quite happy with it.

I do find that the default thrust angle needs a bit of tweaking as the nose pulls down a bit during run-up while in flight.

Adding a degree of up thrust should cure this.
