All, I picked up this Extra ARF at an auction. I'm moving up from a Sig four star and wanted something to tip stall ;>)
Anyone know who manufactures it? The ABS cowl is crap and needs to be replaced. Wanted to try to replace it, preferably w/fiberglass. Wing tips, stab tips, etc seem to be some sort of plastic cap vs. covering too. Not looking to change it, but thought that could help in identifying it.
Recommendations on engine size? Wing span is 64", fuse length is about 49". Doesn't feel too heavy.
Thanks,
Randy

Definitely the Hobbico ASAP Extra 300 .60 size. I had the 40 size and it was a great flyer. Try not to damage it though, as the foam skin isn't easily repaired. Mine was very light also and it had unlimited vertical with a Supertigre 45. I think a 60FX would be awesome with this one.
