Damn I'm hungry
Going to help my bud and get the engine on it and the radio in.
This MXS would be PERFECT for a DL/DA50! Going to mount up a DLE60 twin though.
This one does look as if it will be 16-17 pounds full of fuel and made for a 50cc engine. Looks to be a floater! Nice plane.
The really hard part is giving it back. We all know what happened with his 26cc Edge....

I got some great deals on those "brown out" radios and never had a glitch. They served me well, plus saved a lot of coin, because the previous owners swore they were bad. I remember a few years ago when at the field and someone would have an issue, the first words were usually "radio problem."
As they say, one man's trash can be another man's treasure - sometimes anyway. I think I probably had a thousand flights without issue on one of those brown out specky radios and then I gave it away and the guy is still flying with it. Of course, let's not start a radio argument

Aww come on. Where's your sense of adventure? LolI got some great deals on those "brown out" radios and never had a glitch.

Truthfully.......It's his
. He sold the PAU Edge for a lighter airframe and likes the way the MXS flies. This should be a very good plane for him. He had one previous which I got to pull at the sticks and I was very impressed how well it flew. After seeing this plane I wish I had got it too for the DL50. But I am sticking to plan and the DL50 will have a new home in a couple of months. Speaking of which......Looking like a nice day. Cooler weather humidity has gone down. Test flight two

That is really cool. I have heard that the MXS is a very sweet flying plane. No matter who makes it. I have heard that they are very crisp, precise, and just right down sick and insanely stupid fun. It is the only airframe I have yet to own. But I'm actually kind of thinking that I will get one. The new 110 CS will need a home to go into. Extreme flight makes a 120 cc version MXS, correct? I'm thinking that the 3 DUB 110 CS is going to make a sweet combination for that plane. Wishing you great success on your next test flight Kelly.Truthfully.......It's his

Care to share just which areas to venture into?There are areas to venture into and then there are areas to venture into

We could always follow the pattern and discuss any one of these three that quickly get derailed and turn into a see who can pee the farthest match:Care to share just which areas to venture into?
1. Which radio is best
2. Which oil is best
3. FAA regulations
