I just found out yesterday that they are still in China.
They are in the boxes ready to go however, Chris has decided to make a final trip over there just to ensure that the planes are perfect before they leave China.
He has roughly 1000 planes coming in the first shipment and if they get to the states with with some kind of problem hes gonna be in a world of hurt.
He told me that he really hates delaying the shipment any longer but he feels this is what he has to do to.

Bear with him!
They will be worth the wait.

From talking to Chris, I think once they hit the ocean It will be 6 weeks out before you would see one at your doorstep..

So it sounds like what was once late July has now turned into, maybe late Sep. or probably Oct. . I live in Ohio and really wanted a plane for the end of summer and fall. If the current timeline hold it may not fly till next year?

Hey Wayne I noticed your signature line. What is your relationship with Extreme? I noticed it a while back and keep meaning to ask.

I never leave my Tx on after flying... Well
I almost never leave my Tx on after flying.Well
I usually dont leave my Tx on after flying. The switch got bumped while being handled. Thats my story and Im sticking to it. Sorry wayne, I figured youd be over it by now. You didnt make the motor quit. My funtana blew up after the saito gave up in a hover, *hit happens.

Thanks wayne, I spoke to him but forgot to ask one thing.
Did he use the standoffs with the DA 50 or mount the carb through the firewall?

I want to know which way he had it to balance correctly.

Thanks

He told me that the standard DA-50 standoffs work perfectly in the 28% planes.

Thats what I got.
