Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

[Enterprise]

This plane was announced almost 2 years ago and unveiled at SEFF 2012. I noticed there is not a dedicated thread on it yet on any forums so I figured I would start one. Here is the information I have managed to get.

76" wingspan, 85" with the racing tips
comes in both a gas and electric version
was reported in build by "the boss" back in January
flies wonderful on a 3000 watt setup
Is going to come in the red/white/blue and yellow/black schemes from the 64"

I was leaning towards doing a 12s setup with a Hacker A60-8S and 12s 3300. There is an entire separate discussion on this topic here.

Anybody else got any intel? Here is pict I found from last year on another forum. The 78 is the one on the far right.

The is nothing here to look at, move along and unsubscribe. After I get mine you can return return and ask questions and order one if you like. Move along
