Welcome to the Giants!!

I've flown a Sebart Yak and I was very impressed. I would probably go with the Sebart, if it were my choice, simply by my impression of the Yak.

I have both the Sebart Katana 30 and the Sukhoi 30, and they both fly excellent. The nicest I have flown in that size range.

Thanks for welcome, i have flown both Seb Kat30e & Suk 30e, both are amazing. Was wondering if Precision Aerobatics Extra 260 has the same high alpha coupling issues when going from knife edge to hover on the deck? Been reading A.J. Fliton extra330 seems good in that area?-havent seen one in Australia yet though.

I ditto the Sebart planes...they fly really nicely....

Wow, just watched video of Precision Aerobatics Extra 260 (green one) by Hercdriver 7777 in the gallery. At the risk of ridicule who is the pilot Chris Jewett? Very nice flying.

Maybe i'm in in the wrong thread? feel free to reply. Anyone in USA or Australia got any feedback on Precision Aerobatics 48" Extra 260? I have one on order in Australia (still not in?).Thanks.

I saw it at the SEEF , and it fly extremely well!! Chris flew the Demo, and did a super job, the wind was howling, and he did an awesome job. We got to fly it as well, the wings are slightly clipped compared to the KatMD, and it allows the snaps,, and autorotations to be quicker, and @ lightening speed...it is an all out 3d demon if you use the bigger throws.. very nice indeed.

ozhover3 · 05-24-2008, 06:15 AM

Thanks for feedback, from the videos i've seen it looks like its all factory hinged. Do you think it's possible to get approx 50-60 deg deflection on elev/rudder? Did Chris Hinson(?) from Extreme Flight fly it or Chris Jewett? any videos? Still waiting on my green one......

Radioactive · 05-25-2008, 01:15 PM

it wasn't chris from extreme flight, he was busy flying his stuff, and might i add flying it well... Like extreme 3D!!

ozhover3 · 05-27-2008, 04:55 AM

Yeah, he's a 3D demon from the vids i've seen. FINALLY got my green Precision Aerobatics Extra 260 today! $400 Australian with P.A thrust 30 & Quantum 40amp ESC. Probably paid too much but should be flying it in a few weeks. Have JET ACTION here for 4days this week so wont be building it yet. Two mates are flying approx 5 rc turbine jets (scale F-18,F-16,Eurofighter),Rookie2 thrust vectored etc! Gotta luv the sound-Lifestyles of the rich & famous i guess.

ozhover3 · 05-28-2008, 08:23 AM

Hopefully will get a few videos up soon of P.A. extra 260 doing somethin stupid. I've got a V.poor quality one of me trying to hit me mates growing gut with my Sebart Katana 30E at our local park on youtube (
