No, the GP Extra300 60 isint 3D capable. You need to modify it to go 3D.

Mojo it is. Paul has a wing removal kit and a 2.5 Deg thrust plate listed on his site as optional. Any idea why these are needed?

Ameyam
The thrust plates are available because profiles are built as a straight plank. There isnt any thrust offset built into the nose because there isnt a motor box. If you notice on a full fuse plane, the firewall is usually set to the left a little.

I didnt get the thrust plates for my profile. I just added washers under the front engine mount holes. Would probably need 1-2 washers to get the 2 degrees.
