Badass! my new comp-arf 2.6 extra 330L

HELLO GUYS
COMPLIMENTS TO THE SEASON

Here are some pics of my new project.

i am busy prepping it to throw the paint on. the colors are going to be red,yellow and purple with a pearl finish. i will post some pics of the progress and also of the first flight.

this bird is a good replacement for my edge 540t that i lost due to battery failure.(check previous posts).

the build quality on this plane is incredible and the weight is almost non existent.
check back regularly for updates.

i have got a 3w 55i us cs with canister but thinking of getting a 3w75i ts cs

i have used the 55 on a plane that was 22 ponds and it pulled it like a deamon. so it might be cool for this plane given how light it is.

Yeah the 75CS twinspark should be fine on this plane. A tuned pipe would probably give it some nice oomph. 55 would probably fly it but not too aerobatic-ish. Good luck with the project!

The 75CS TS will really come alive with a KS 1080 or 1090 full pipe.
