Default RE: Great Planes Extra 300 GP/EP

Well, I have quite a few flights on mine now. One observation...when I do a knife edge to the left.....the canopy flies off. So I need to do something here as I almost lost it the last time.
Also, someone else had one of these at the field and did not like how it flew. I was surprised. Ok, I have a Saito.56 in mine, I am using Mid sized servos all inside the cockpit, so Iam pretty light. He has a big .91 2 stroke on his, big servos in thetail and overall heavier. His plane has an obvious "barbell effect"feel to it. I like mine better, but his does fly well. He just needsmore experience with it.
Again, this is a great little airplane. Good throw around sport model, and very well engineered. (other than the canopy) <span class="info"> </span>


My gosh a .91 in this plane. You could fly a 2x4 with that much power.
