PAU 35% Extra 300SP Opinions
Trevor, there is no randomness: you need to feel the holes in the fuse sides with your fingers through the covering. These openings match the locations of the Stab tube, servo access hole, and anti rotation pin. After you have opened those, install the stab with he stab tube, and this will...- Islandflyer

Eric, the 30% Edge is a slightly smaller, older plane that does great on a 50cc engine: wing span in 85" The 50cc Edge 540T is a very recent design, 88" wingspan. It is a more recent, larger development of the original 30% Edge. A beast with 60cc. The 50cc Extra is a great performer in...- Islandflyer

PAU 35% Extra 300SP Opinions
Trevor, you need to match the servos on the ailerons so they do not fight each other, but you also need to match the elevator servos for proper flight performance. Not properly matching the elevators will not cause any mechanical issue, but will result in poor flight performance- Islandflyer

50cc Extra 300 SP
The Extra was designed before the DA-60 was around. It was designed around the DA-50 with 3" Stand offs. If you you use plywood spacers, they need to be made from hard ply and be at least 1" in diameter, or they will compress, and therefore the engine will no longer be tight. I also use...- Islandflyer
