Thanks!! The plane was and is awesome. Loved the flight characterize of it and it took very little rudder for a rock solid knife edge.

@Patto @bwerneth and @BBCorvette18 all gotta a pull on the Extra 330 at Monster Fest and it's still looking pretty as ever. Thanks guys for taking it easy on the beast while I'm still looking for screws, nuts and bolts to back out. So far the only things I've lost was one lower cowl screw and one cowl dowl. Both fixed in a matter minutes. :)

Hey [MENTION=2643]3DMIKE[/MENTION] are those wheel pants and gear cuffs plastic? If so are they pretty durable, or will they crack or break in taller grass fairly easily?
Do you think Hitec HS7954 servos would perform well with this bird Im actually thinking I would like to go with Savox on this one.

Hey bush... The pants are fiberglass and very durable. The cuffs are a very nice molded plastic that has the best fit I've seen yet. I'm running the savox 1268's all around at 7.4 but I am getting a lot of blow back at high speed (only on ailerons) which is my fault for putting the servo linkage at the farthest out in the arms. I will be pulling them in and expect much better performance!

I take that back I'm running a beefy savox rudder servo (580 oz I believe) that has no problems.

One last note for you bush... I fly on a 600ft grass runway as well and I don't believe it was be an issue. I like to take off with wheels on the ground for quite a bit longer than most as well because I like the look of it screaming down the runway at full speed with wheels on the ground. :)
