    Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

    I made it from the aluminum tubing that comes with those Turdish Gas tanks, LOL. Like I said to bend it without kinking, slips a piece of solder through it, bend it and slip out the solder.

    Superstocktx Hey buddy I am working on your logo. WOW this thing is Ultra complex. Thier are thousands of splines that need to be separated and grouped before I could even build a mesh geometry to create a 3D object. I did extract the inside of the plane after an hour or so. All I can...

    Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

    Since my weight is going to be right at the 14 lb range, I decided to install the landing gear cuffs. And since I had already installed the fuel vent, I had to make a minor change the cuffs. Here is a tip for you. If you ever want to bend the aluminum fuel line that is used to build...

    Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

    That Baby looks great, that Pitts Wrap around is very clean. I love the yellow, and had to literally flip a coin to choose red or yellow. Lets see some vids of this plane. Is the the config you fly it in mainly (no tips)

    Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

    The profile, it like a gasser foamie ;), No not in to Imac, but if I was I would do a 42% Extra 260 with a Da 200.

    What's Up With 3DHS??

    I have never flown or owned a 3DHS plane. I would love to, and if a used one comes my way I might snatch it up. Remember the Iphone when it first came out. Apple killed it, they knocked the ball out of the park and for many years people didn't have a choice or the choices were new tech and not...

    Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

    If I do another 50cc plane, I just might give that motor a try. I think I am going to land at the 35% size plane next. In my hangar I want a 20cc profile, 35CC electric and gasser, a 50cc gasser, and a 120cc gasser. And a whole bunch of foamies ;) That isnt too much to ask right? LOL

    What's Up With 3DHS??

    Nice post, just so I am clear, you are a Sponsored Team 3DHS pilot right? Edit, I read your post and responded, If I had read further I would of seen the conformation that you were in fact a 3DHS team pilot. I heard your name dropped many times on the 3DHS podcast. Your perspective isnt...

    Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

    I wanted to try the stealth 22b or a, also wanted to look at the Menz 23x8 because I hear a 23" from Menz is like a 22" from everywhere else.

    Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

    So the 50r us a little heavier than the da50, nice to have the extra power.

    Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

    The only thing I want to say is ground clearance. I run a 22x8 on my DA-50-R and while I do have clearance, I need to be mindful to keep the tail pinned then taxiing around, I'd hate to eat up a prop on a ground strike. I think I'll be switching props yo that Vess carbon fiber one after I get a...

    Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

    Left off the LG covers. I ground down every washer, and turned down socket head cap screws on the motor mount. Turned down the DA stand offs a little. and since I am using the Tech Aero Ibec, I lost a battery (only use two). Also chose nice slim 2S life packs that are light compared to others...

    108 extra 330 lt 3dhs

    That is one helluva maiden. You have Huge BallZ! I am from the full scale experimental world. Before I ket it rip, I do a shakedown, land, check and recheck, ect.. then another shakedown. Check recheck... ect. Then when I know everything is good to go and I have tested what the plane will do...

    Aerobeez 71" Extra 330 Step by Step Build Guide - Part 1

    That is defiantly a good build manual. I would add a step that shows flat spotting the axle and the tail wheel. I love the fact your kit doesn't require you to install blind nuts in the wheel pants, and has two bolts to hold it in place. It's the little details that make life easier ;). The...
