    DA-70 Twin

    Heck yes mate, it's tonnes smoother then the da60. It was quite an eye popper the first time it fired and I was like, mmmmm no vibe baby!

    gary, those GP motors sound hot. What sort of RPM do you get on the ground on that GP61?

    DA-70 Twin

    I don't know Craig. Can't get carbon falcons over here to try. I'd say the DA70 makes similar power to the DA60/RE2 combo, but it just delivers it differently without that surge from the pipe. Mine is spinning the vess stealth 24B at around 7200rpm on the ground, that's about 150rpm more then...

    DA-70 Twin

    Hey Craig. Gary's correct. I have the DA70 on my EF 88" edge with Vess carbon 24B prop. Its an absolute monster on that size plane. I love it. When I weigh my 91" extra on DA60/RE2 pipe and 88" edge on DA70 drop muffs, the fuse on the edge is 600gram lighter. Now I don't know that this is...

    Extreme Flight Extra 300 91"

    The Tri stock is to support the underside of the motor box lid. Dry fit them, you will see they are different lengths ready to support the lid. When ready you glue the Tri stock flush with epoxy, once dry then the lid is epoxied onto it. Makes it heaps rigid and strong.

    Thanks guys. appreciate the feedback. Looks like its the ef for me. Plus we can get spares down here for ef kits, not so for 3dhs kits.

    I assume you building a 60" plane. I always fully mount the wings first either with or without ailerons, then measure from the extreme edge of each trailing edge. Seems to work fine.

    Guys, I know this may seem a loaded question, but I'm planning a DA120 powered airframe in 2014 and asking for an honest opinion between the EF 104" extra and the 3dhs 103 Extra330. I'm sure both are great airframes, I've seen the EF 104 flying in IMAC and freestyle first hand, but not seen the...

    60" Extra 300 EXP

    I'd had a few issues with the larger ZTW products being not long enough in the cables and always too unsure about making them longer etc. Never had any faults with the CC ICE products, and I find the ICE lite products really great once I found the best firmware version to deliver. The Lite 100...

    60" Extra 300 EXP

    I'm running the Motrolfly 4315-480 on 6s and 16x8 Xoar on mine. I'm using the CC Ice lite 100A esc and couldn't work out why every time I updated the firmware it was giving less and less power. Found the answer on the 3DHS threads about the CC updates being crap and rolled it back to the...

    60" Extra 300 EXP

    Thank Bryan, I haven't flown the bigger Lazer yet, but can't imagine life without a 60" extra. Still learning every time I fly, but those funnel hovers look and sound just sweet.

    3DHS 120" Extra LX

    Does anyone have photos of the work Joe had to do to fit the DA200 into this bad girl. It flys and looks sooooooo sweet, I'm thinking of stepping up to this in 2014.

    60" Laser-EXP

    Damn Gary. Looks like an alien ate its nose off. Sorry for this little mishap. I hate it when equipment issues cause an impact with the ground like this.

    Extreme Flight 104 Extra

    There's not that more then the 91" extra. With that made sure I opened up the holes a little before starting, that helps make sure you get all the throw. For the wings I hinged both ailerons first and once set, I glued them onto the wings. Same with rudder.

    Extreme Flight 104 Extra

    Daniel, what's your preference on this plane with the DA120. Drop mufflers, pipes or cans. Seems you generally run the stock muffs, but just how loud is it on the stocks? Thinking about one of these bad girls for next years IMAC/freestyle events, gonna run a 3 blade for the IMAC and a...
