150-200cc Extra 300SP

Taildraggerrc.com my friend. 20ga wiring upto 72" length.

+1000!!! TDRC and never buy or build others. You also don't want small gauge extensions, you want the 20g silicone rubber wires like TDRC sells. Made my own a few times.....completely not worth it for me. For one, the high quality 20g wires are hard to crimp well and the wires basically run into each other inside those little DIY plugs. Very difficult and frustrating. Way easier to just buy them.

If you decide to make your own using the mpx connectors, check these out at Esprit, http://www.espritmodel.com/multiplex-connector-solder-couplers-servo-2.aspx They make soldering multiple wires to the mpx connectors a breeze. If you are restricted on space, then these may not be an option.

Just noticed the spelling of crimpers, it's been changed to the correct spelling.

This morning At IMAC Jim and I got together for a few pictures of his recovered Extra and My prototype Extra. Let me tell you it looks better then in the pictures.
It is always awesome to meet someone from the threads. It's even better if you can make friends with that person. http://www.GiantScaleNews.com/forums/images/smilies/198.gif

So I finally am ready for the test flight. electronics are all buttoned up. GoPro is mounted. Airframe has an initial balance. Now It's raining. Hoping for tonight if all the weather starts to cooperate. Plan to get video of the first flight. There are still a few graphics issues that I want to tidy up over time but it's ready to fly.

Hello Herve,
I need a new Canopy for my Extra 300 SP. I looked at the PAU website and didn't see anywhere I can order parts. I sent a message via the contacts page and haven't gotten a reply. Can you let me know how to place an order?
Thx
Jim
