Lightbulb Total Composites Extra 300 37% - 2 available

Just a quick note, there are currently 2 Total Composites 37% Extra 300's available and ready to ship.
--more info about the planes here--

I have one of these and it is AWESOME. I just finished one for a friend of mine as well. These planes are hand made one at a time in San Diego and are not easy to get, however there are 2 available first come first serve. Contact sales@total-composites.com if you are interested.


Here are a couple of pics of mine. Right now it weighs 36 3/4 pounds with a ZDZ 160, JMB exhaust, Fromeco lipo's, and sullivan smoke system.

Yeah, I saw the double posts. I'm having madmax nuke the other one. The engine loooooves the cool air but the finger tips don't

Sadly it's 100 degrees here now

Here's a video of some prop hanging practice on a windy day.

Yep... 2 are available...but I have no idea for how long. I've seen the sheeting work on both sets of wings and all I can say is "freaking stunning"!! I'm thinking about selling the kids…errrr…macanaw’s kids to get both kits for myself ;-).

Dennis,

Not 540 but possibly a 260 Extra.

Thanks, good fields can be hard to come by. Here is a aerial photo of the field and surrounding area.

BTW
Brian and I will be showing off two of these planes at the Arvada Aeromodelers airshow Sept. 9th in Colorado. They have quite I nice field there also.

I have heard that this model is very nice.
I don't mean to rain on your set up, but viewing the video makes me feel that the vertical pull out is a tad on the weak side. Is that ZDZ tuned for full power? Is it the high altitude? What prop are you running on it? The rpm's sound very high.

The ZDZ that was in the plane when that video was taken died the following weekend It had some major problems I had noticed the lack of power. I have a replacement engine in it now and the verticle is awesome. We do fly at a high altitude here (4300 feet) and I was running a 30x10 biela to make some noise. The plane is AWESOME, the best I have ever owned and one of the best I have ever flown.
