Pilot RC 122" Extra 330SC

[Joe Hunt]

Hey Joe.
Glad to see you're back. The last video I recall seeing of yours was one where you were 3D ing
In what appeared to be a vineyard. That was ages ago...

HI PHIL! Like 8 years ago, yeah. haha That vineyard is in NorCal, I'm in SoCal now. I'll get back up there for another video, though.

Yikes, tough and expensive lesson huh? Oiy....

The biggest problem was I couldn't find the swept forward landing gear. Graphtech let me hanging for months. I finally modified a Thunder Tiger gear from Chief aircraft. What a relief to taxi and land without fighting nose over.

That was right when I started flying RC.
I'll be watching for new video from you...

I built that plane and I've built a couple other Yaks. They weight right around 27-30lbs depending on options.

Hey Spats,
Thanks for posting pictures. I am interested for now in the Pilot Extra330sc 100cc size and was wondering if i put Cans instead of stock mufflers it would take away from the 3d floatiness etc... Thanks for your time.

We fly most of our Pilot planes with cans and notice no difference. Pilot is one of the most floaty slow planes I think. Where they lack is the high energy stuff which is why most kids don't fly them. The wings are very thick so they don't do riffle rollers. I had an extreme flight 104 and it required way more throttle to do slow harriers compared to the Pilot plane. FYI the Extra 100cc and 40% are my favorite planes.

Hope this helps, Spats
