RE: 35% EXTRA 260?
I'm counting the days!!! I Have my new DA 100 in hand and a bunch of 5955 and 5945 servos sitting here that Santa left for me. Now the plane is all I need. Keep us up to date as when they will be in Mark. I have mine preorded and cant wait. The winter has been vary mild here in Michigan and I'm still flying the Extra 260 50cc QB. Its been the best plane I have ever had no problems to date and have around 40 flights on it now. I have read all the post on the 35% Extra QB here on RCU and Down on the Deck and anywhere there is a fourm. I'm still getting around a few odds and ends for my build but by the time the plane show's up I should have gotten all my hardware around and ready to slam it togather. How is yours holding up? I see you went with the 5945's and one 5955 on the rudder are you still using this setup or have you went to a higher TQ servo and on the rudder are you still using one or two 5955's??

Mine is holding up great, I have well over 150 flights on it and it still looks new. I am still using the single 5955 on the rudder and feel that it is plenty, I will be doing the same on my new 100cc Yak I am putting together. Enjoy your mild weather while you still can, I got a feeling we're in for a rough winter up here in CO. Will do on keeping you all up to date, I will make a post here as soon as they arrive.

Sounds good and thanks!! Do you think the 5945 on the other surfaces is enough servo? I have 4 of them and was thinking on putting them on the ailerons and then the 5955 on the elevators and rudder. Just wondering if the 5945's are powerful enough for the ailerons for hard 3D? Seems like everbody is going full ship on the high TQ stuff anymore.
