 |  AW Extra 260, Newest Hanger addition
Well folks, even with my crazy work schedule I finally found time to finish this project. The 50CC AeroWorks Extra 260 went together like a dream, no cutting or grinding needed. Seems Rocco and the folks at AW have this whole QB thing pretty well dialed in. I used all the supplied hardware, it was great. She's beautiful, light, and true, but appears solid in all respects. I opted for all the carbon options and she came in just under 16 pounds all up, even with the SmartFly SuperReg and twin Fromeco 2400 reciever batt's. I just wonder what it's gonna fly like? My first 50CC plane  I'm very happy with the whole project. How can you lose with a package of this quality.  Oh! I ran across a guy named Bad Brad (badbradgraphics.com) who cut all my graphic's, he had a standard package for the plane and then made any and all changes I wanted and cut all the vendor specific logo's as well. I thought the pricing was VERY reasonable and service was remarkable, even when I called him back about a small changes I wanted after the fact! Wow, am I a sucker for good customer service. Oh well, let me know what you guys think. I'll post a maiden flight report as soon as I get a day off with decent weather  BP |

I have the same plane but in yellow. Does yours lock into inverted flat spins and are difficult to get out of. My CG is neutral and I want to know if this is normal. I like the way it tumbles and all but its a handful at times to get out of flat spins. Had a few close calls
