Default Kangke Extra 300L ARF

I was looking threw chief aircraft and saw this 35% 106" extra, Looks pretty nice. I've owned a few other kangke planes in the past which where all really nice flying and the construction was excellent. Anyone know any more info on this bird? Could be a contender with GP Cap 580 for a budget builder. Chief has them for $550.00

I just got through building one. I am a Kangke dealer but I wouldn't give it high marks. Not the worst either. Just kind of so~so rating. I would not do it again!

Talking Re: Kangke Extra 300L ARF

Hey guys,
Im the Kanke Aussie dealer.
Personally i'd go the kangke over the GP for its 3d capabilities and also for the construction quality.

I would bother. they are excellent

Actually....... NO, I am still not thrilled with some aspects of the design but it came in VERY light (just under 27pds) and it flies GREAT! A real shocker to be honest. Best flying plane I own.

I was wrong about the weight. It comes in at 35 pounds dry, one servo per wing, one battery. IT'S HEAVY!!
