JTec Radiowave 40% Extra Finally Flies
 
1 Attachment(s)
I maidened it last weekend and am very happy with how it flies, how it went together, and the support I received. All the info is on my website for those curious to see what comes out of the box and how I set it up. Only weak point so far is the covering - likes to come off the wings.

Shaky video with some shaky flying [link=http://www.kdrader.ca/index.php?option=com_docman&task=doc_download&gid= 2&Itemid=29]here[/link]. My buddy was having a little trouble with the viewfinder and it was overcast. I hope to have something better by next week.

I know this plane has been out for awhile but I'd never seen one up close, and had trouble finding detailed pictures before I ordered it. Hope this helps.

Comments welcome

i know what you are saying about the flight of the machine i have the Radiocraft Extra and she is sweet the covering is holding strong the only thing i had to do was tighten it up on the wings. Iam running a 3W-150 on cans and a 29 x12 x3 fuchs.

What a realistic finished weight on these planes?
Thanks

How did you manage to get one in all white? I asked them but they said its only available in the two colour schemes.

There is no question, they are one sweet plane. Been tearing up the sky this summer with mine!

Brian,

We've come out with a 300, the PAK kits will be here in a couple of weeks. We have about 6 kits that are not spoken for.

I just picked up one of these used and can't wait to get it going. Where can I get instrument panels for it and who has a good set of wingbags to fit?

hope you enjoy it, it is a really good and predictable flying plane. What are you going to set it up with?

As for your questions I have always used the JTEC instrument kits and made the panel out of light weight carbon fiber sheet. It looks really cool that way, i have attached a picture of what it looks like. For wing bags I have used wing bags by caroline, but there are some really nice ones that I have seen for them that I will probably try on the new extra 300. I just can't remember the companies name.
