Default Skyline Extra 300LP 30CC 73''

Anybody have one of these? If so, please tell me your experience as I am about to buy the kit. Is a DLE 30 a good combination?
Thanks

Yes, I have one. But is not a kit is a ARF, from General Hobby.
I'm using a DLE 35RA with electric starter, and run perfect for this baby

Thanks Pimimo. I just received the Skyline 73" MX-2 arf. With what I have seen so far I'm pretty impressed with the fit and finish. I have a few questions that maybe you can help me with.
What servos are you running on your Extra?
What's your total weight?
Is your CG at 27% mac per the plans?
Do you fly 3D or just aerobatic?
Do you have many flights on the plane and is the airframe holding up to the vibration from the engine?
Anything else to add or that I should look out for?
Thanks again.
