Default Aero-Works 260 QB and Kroma 50cc

Here is the Aero Works 260 and the Kroma 50. Great kit and went together with ease. To help on weight I went with the Carbon Gear, Tail Wheel and Carbon wing and stab tubes. The Extra is ready to Fly just waiting on a good day to test fly, should be this weekend. I have a gallon of fuel through the Kroma and it is turning the Bolly 21 x 8 at 7300rpm
Here is what is in the 260
Futaba 14 MZ
Futaba R149DP receiver
5 - Futaba 9155's
1 - Futaba 9650
Smart-Fly Regulators
2- Fromeco 2600 Lithium Ions
Kroma 50cc
K&S Header
MTW 75H canister

Weight RTF is 16lbs 4oz Should be Great

Looks nice Todd! It will probably be 6 or 8 weeks before I can fly my 180.

Ok so here is a little video of the 260. The Kroma 50 has 3 gallons through it and I am still running the smaller prop. The prop is a Bolly 21 x 8 turning 7600 RPM
and the plane flies Great and will do some crazy stuff. Next prop will be the 22 x 8
then 23 x 8 I will keep you posted on the numbers.
Biff.
Sorry I did not see you post, Can't make the Nall but hope to see you down the road somewhere.
