Default New light weight Aero Works Offering.

Hi Guys,

I plucked this from another site.

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.

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.

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.

Great move AW, you need to go back to many of your older designs and apply this QB-L concept.
