    3DHS 44" Slick 580__More Pocket Sized Fun

    Park size planes are always an almost obscene amount of fun. Outside of a bit of preventative maintenance they are usually totally carefree, take up very little space in the house or garage, and fit in the car fully assembled and ready to rock. This, coupled with the ability to use smaller and...

    3D Hobby Shop 47" Extra 300shp

    Extra SHP__Flying With An Old Friend The recent merger of Extreme Flight and 3DHS opens a lot of interesting possibilities. With both brands now under one roof, the first plane I wanted to build was the newest Extra SHP. I learned to fly 3D on an SHP (as did thousands of other guys), and...

    Since 60" planes seen to be accepted here, this might be another good forum for me. I simply don't have the storage space or finances for larger planes. I wrecked a 60" recently and it really hurt, so that's the limit for me. I've been flying all of the 60's lately, and you can read about that...

    Yak EXP__Tales Of The Big Dog

    Oh, absolutely on a switch. There are times you don't want it on. I've tired it on the Edge and the effect is not as dramatic. I think the Edge is better without it, but it does seem to help the others.

    Yak EXP__Tales Of The Big Dog

    After writing "Picking The Perfect 60" EXP I wanted a little bit of a break from writing, shooting and editing video. I was not actually planning to do another article of any sort, at least for the rest of the month, but we got so much great Yak footage yesterday that writing a little something...

    60" Laser EXP__Five Feet Of Smooth

    I just built a new Extra. I really should post the video here. It's only got a handful of flights on it so I am waiting to shoot a new one when I get less afraid of scuffing it up. It's not easy to push a brand new, perfect airplane really hard. I mean, you just built it, so why get stupid so...

    60" Laser EXP__Five Feet Of Smooth

    You may have noticed we are flying a lot of the 60" EXPs lately, which is because we have been. Since October I have built a new Yak, Extra and Laser in 60" and my Edge is a year old but still in excellent shape ..... new almost. I've got one of everything except a 64" MXS, but I plan to build...

    48" and 78" Extra 300

    We are trying to put together an Extreme Flight fly-in (though everyone would be welcome) at Mid Florida RC club near Lakeland, on the Fantasy Of Flight property. The club is ready to go whenever we are. I just need someone to handle the organization and promotion.

    60" Laser-EXP

    Man, you've really improved your game! We need to burn a few packs some time. I guess I'm going to try to get down there for Thursday night flying when they first that back up again. I just ordered a yellow 60" Laser, so I'll be joining the party soon!

    Article: DOC AUSTIN - Testing: Hi Tec's New HS5070MH Servos

    Testing: Hi Tec's New HS5070MH Servos The Next Evolution The 48" class plane seems to change and grow and preform more spectacularly every time a new airframe hits the market. I don't have the statistics, but it seems to me this is the most popular size electric (though the 60s are sure...

    Extreme Flight 60" Yak -54 Sneak Peek!!!

    Right in the first 10 seconds of the video I grind off about 1/4" of meat. I fixed that but our runway is so abrasive that it didn't take much to grind it back off. I'm going to be more careful when I get a new rudder. https://vimeo.com/109554614

    Extreme Flight 60" Yak -54 Sneak Peek!!!

    Part of why I am not currently flying this plane is because it is way too easy to get crazy with it. I flew it around low and slow so much that I eventually ground the top of the rudder completely off. She is currently waiting for a replacement rudder, and I will sure be happy to get her back in...
