Extra300 w/simple smoke....
 
I would like to find the best Extra300 kit that can introduce me to the simplest smoke system out there.... can anyone help with this combination? Any suggestions on how to implement smoke easily?

What engine size?

Probably 60 size or even a smaller Zenoah engine... maybe with the G26. Thanks.

You will probably have more luck with the Zenoah. 2-stroke glow engines are not the best at producing smoke with (although I plan on doing a few tests in the next few weeks).

Read this thread, it should tell you a lot.

How about the GP Extra 60 size with a 4-stroke and smoke? I think this is probably the smallest size kit that you can easily add smoke to without having to worry too much about the added weight of the smoke system. Fuse is big enough to fit all the goodies. MinnFlyer will have to help you with the smoke part of it, though.

Actually, I had a GP Extra with a YS91AC and a smoker. Worked great. Wound up putting the engine and smoker into my Gp Skybolt:
