RE: EXtra 260 .50 size
well im back, i decided to go, sorry no video i went alone. It flew great!!! I wasnt how sure the wheels would hold up on the grass runway but they did ok. Its still somewhat nose heavy but even then the landing was kinda floaty. I did have one mishap, I neglected to give it a preflight inspection(didnt think it was neccessary, i finished it lastnight), and about three minutes into the flight i started getting brave and did some tumbles, snaps etc.... and i notice something got out of alignment, it kept wanted to roll to one side, then it went away, but i landed immediately and noticed the servo arm came off. Since it was supposed to be a quickie today, i didnt take any tools other that a pack of allen wrenches for the hatch, glow driver and fuel, in other words i took the bare essentials....... next time im taking the usual goodies, and be prepared for s**+ like this morning.
P.S. knifeegdes great!! if my thumbs remember correctly it pulls slightly toward the canopy......I feel very confident with this plane .... cant wait to take her up again
I noticed there is a servo slot in the fuselage for what could be a rudder servo, has any one put dual elev servos and pull pull on the extra? Its probably overkill, but i like knowing that both control surfaces are moving in sync under high stress maneuvers
