Default 40% 260 vs 300

looking for input on one vs the other. i have a 300 on order, but i love the way my 35% 260 looks and flys. i can't make up my mind! i will be flying it in advanced if that matters. looking for people that have flown both. thanks

Both are amazing planes.
Either one will suit anyone flying IMAC.

I liked my 300 a tad better than my 260 becuase I think I rolled the 300 better.
More side area so less rudder inputs while rolling.

You already know my answer bob. LOL I agree with wayne, they are both excellent but I do like the 300 a little better.

T Bob is right. The 300 has the sexiest lines of all!

Don't mess with the wing. It works. This is the first plane I have had that didn't "lose its shine" after the initial "new plane high".

Build the 300 stock, get some heavy duty springs on that tranny and enjoy!
