This may have been brought up before, are there any plans for new planes coming out in the 70" range to go along with the Extra?

It would be mad to see a 70" yak

The 78" MXS will be here at some point and Chris is looking at more but not sure what he is cooking up.

Those are all good talks!!! LASER!
Anyone who hasn't pulled one, do it and you will know why those of who have want a bigger one. I can't say enough about it. Each flight just gets better and better. One of our "senior" guys snatched up the last yellow one. Any idea of restock anyone?

Tell Chris that a huge helping of LASER and a side dish of MXS-R would fit nicely on my EF 78" platter!!!!!!! Thank you!

I'd like to know if that 60" Laser is having the same popularity it's having here in the NE as everywhere else? Anyone?

I think the Laser is the hot 60-class EXP everywhere right now. I also think there has been a rejuvenation of the 78 Extra now that guys are powering it to 3500W on electric, and the new 40cc twin seems to be a winner, so far. All that plane needed was a touch more power and it really blossomed as a 3D airframe, IMO.

I'd personally like to see a 70 to 74 inch Laser since transporting two 78's in the back of the SUV is not going to happen. I actually bought a plane from another manufacturer for the first time in over two years just to get a 74 inch that will fit with my son's 78. Turned out to be a winner, but I'd still prefer the two servos, split elevators, and bolt on stabs that EF goes with from 70 inches and up. And let's face it, an 11 pound airplane is so much easier and less expensive to power to a 2-to-1 power to weight in both gas and electric than a 13+ plane.
