I have been looking at the 300 special and I am interested in a 50 cc 260 (they look pretty similar to me) im just curious how much different the flight chararistics are between the 300 special and a 260 of comparable size.[sm=confused.gif]

The WH Extra 260 was done by blowing up the CAD drawings of the Extra 300 special, then we widened the fus a bit to accomodate twins. So their flght characteristucs are virtually identcal.
In full scale the 260 was turned into the 300 with addition of a more powerful engine and expansion to 2 persons, then it was made a single place plane and called a 300 "Special". So as you can see the 300 Special and the 260 are almost exactly the saqme plane.
