Aeroworks Extra 300 .60-.90 questions
Hello. Iam considering getting a AW Extra 300 .60-.90 as my first gas/glow plane. Iam curious to hear fresh opinion on how this plane is and what engines people are happy with. I want a plane that is floaty at stall speeds. I've read some people were not happy with the Saito 100. Maybe there is a new engine coming out that I should wait for? I've seen the Extra 260 fly and it lookedlike it flewreal nice.

The Satio 100 or 1.25 do very well in the plane and keep the weight low. We also have a conversion kit for the DLE 20 coming out this month that will enable you to use the new DLE 20cc gas motor. The airplane weighs about 6 3/4 to 7 pounds.

Oh, hey thanks Mark. Do you think the DLE-20 is going to be the way to go with this plane? Also what are the recommended servos? I would buy this plane right now if it had the updates for the DLE-20 that you described on another thread. Can't wait. Thanks.

We will be selling the update kit as a separate item, so the airplanes will be the same even after it comes out.

How much for the DLE 20 conversion kit? Is it for specific 60-90 ARFs or is it something that will work with all of your 60-90 kits?

The addendum kit will be specific to the .60-.90 ProXtra260. It will make the installation of the DLE 20cc simple and easy. We are still working on it but will have it completed by early next month. Sale price is not yet determined.
We have the 20cc DLE Engines In Stock! Visit the web site for more info
Keep in touch and visit the web site for more updates

RE: Aeroworks Extra 300 .60-.90 questions
I am considering the Aeroworks .60-.90 300 Extra as my next 3D plane but plan to go electric. I am currently flying a Precision Aerobatics Extra 260 which weighs about 2 Lbs. I am looking for something in the 5-6 pound range that can handle a little more wind. What motor/ battery combinations are being used? What are some of the weights being reported?
Thanks in Advance, Pete
