New light weight Aero Works Offering.
Hi Guys,
I plucked this from another site.
Aeroworks Freestyle Extra 260 QB-L
Aeroworks is proud to add the new Freestyle Extra 260 QB-L (Quick Build-Light Series) to our growing line of airplanes. Designed with the demanding 3D pilot in mind, this new airplane features many exciting and revolutionary concepts that are sure to make it the hit of your hangar. The Freestyle Extra 260 QB-L is the first in the new QB-L Series and it is sure to impress with its light weight build quality and its impressive airframe strength and longevity. The new QB-L features all of the Quick Build characteristics that Aeroworks has been known for, assembling the new Freestyle Extra 260 QB-L can be done is as little as 6 hours!
Included with the new Freestyle Extra 260 QB-L is an extensive hardware package that includes Carbon main landing gear, wing tube and the new, non-flex carbon control horns. All of these accessories are designed to be rigid and strong while providing the lightest weight possible for an airplane this size. Ball links have been provided for the smoothest in control surface movement while still allowing for 50+ Degrees of surface deflection on the Ailerons and Rudder with over 60 Degrees of deflection on the elevator! Motor mounting hardware has been provided to aid in mounting most motors and the firewall has been pre-drilled for many popular motor options!
The airframe itself features a large wing to provide an incredibly low wing loading, perfect for 3D flying! The new wing design also features both outboard and inboard Side Force Generators (SFG's) these SFG’s are pre-mounted and can be removed in seconds if desired. Along with the new wing design are the airfoiled tail surfaces that provide great control authority even at low speeds. These extra features make the Freestyle Extra 260 QB-L one of the most responsive 3D airplanes in its class.
