    advantage of composite RC plane?

    Composite should have less flex in the control surfaces as well making for "crispier" response.

    Assembly log. EF 104 Extra.

    Man that sucks. Good thing the plane is tough. I had a dead stick on my 78'' a week or so ago. Just bent the aluminum LG and busted a hole in my pipe tunnel. All is repaired and has been flown since. Good to know the bigger ones are tough too.

    60" Extra 300 EXP

    Increase the trim on your throttle until it idles or put it on a switch. With an idle up you shouldn't have the problem anymore.

    64" mxs exp

    Thanks guys. It's pretty repairable but i'd need a new set of wings, new rudder, and a cowl. At that point i'd rather just get a new kit. I absolutely LOVED my MXS so it'll be hard to be without it for a while but i have some other planes i'm working on to keep me busy. But i WILL have another...

    64" mxs exp

    Yeah i'm going to get the other wing. Probably tomorrow though, i have work in an hour. I've had quite a few close calls with this particular tree but never hit it until today. It was at full throttle too. EPIC! I definitely want another MXS but i really loved the yellow. I might get the...

    64" mxs exp

    I put my MXS through a tree today :veryshocked: It was insane! The wings ripped off(one staying in the tree)and the fuse shot through the rest of the tree and landed nose first in the dirt. It was pretty epic!!! It had a long life though with about 650 flights on it. Now i have to get a new...

    New Here? Introduce yourself!

    Hello TomS, As long as you are proficient at take offs and landings i'm sure you'd have no issue with either the Slick or Edge. I've flown both and for general sport flying they are some of the most stable, easy to fly planes out there. They're just point and shoot and they go exactly where...

    78'' Extra

    Thanks a lot. I'm getting used to my plane screaming across the sky. I'm loving gas. I can't wait to get a 50cc plane! What did the V-stack help with? I need it for the spitting from the carb but i heard it has some performance advantages as well?

    78'' Extra

    Thanks guys. Everyone had finally left the field so it was just me and my buddy there around noon. I was dodging planes left and right early this morning so it was nice to own the runway for a bit while everyone is gone. Gotta say i'm loving the Extra but i'm thinking a good 50cc engine would be...

    60" Extra 300 EXP

    Sick, i knew you'd love it. I really loved mine and thought nothing would ever top it, then i flew the MXS ;) I still want another 60'' Extra though. It did some insanely fast rolls and did some amazing 3D. Now if only i can just get my hands on a 91'' Extra!

    78'' Extra

    Had some fun with the Extra today http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_vCa0ZS-fIo&feature=player_embedded I like it better without the SFGs. It's the first plane that i've preferred to fly without SFGs but i don't mind. Now i can actually use the wing bag :D I'm really loving the plane. The engine...

    Thanks a lot everyone! I had a fun day out at the field today. Brought out my 64'' MXS and 78'' Extra. Got 4 flights on the MXS and 8 on the Extra. It was a really fun day but a little overcast. I got a video of one of my flights on the Extra...

    60" Extra 300 EXP

    You'll love the Extra. I loved mine from the first flight. I only got rid of mine after getting the MXS but i kind of regret selling it. It was such a great flying plane.

    The anti 3D guys seem to be everywhere. They leave the field by 11 or 12 though and i have the field all to myself after that. The only other people are the heli guys cause they hear the same thing about flying over the runway. I have fun watching the heli guys i just take a few steps back aha...

    Thanks a lot Rog! I spent the whole day yesterday flying my MXS high and fast at the club yesterday and didn't get to do much 3D. Like you, i have a few stinkers that don't like the low and slow. That got me in the mood to fly some up close 3D in the backyard today. The guys at my field...
