Badass! PLH Extra 330S

Ok guys here is the scoop.
The first order of the 50cc size Extra 330S's came in this week. They have the new color scheme's and they look great.
I will be borrowing a camera Sat. to get some pics posted of the actual kit. I am including some pics of the color scheme that I had put on them of one of my old Cardin 300's.
There was one mistake that was done in this first production run that will delay being able to ship out orders for about three weeks. Nothing major but I wanted the kits to be as close to perfect as possible to the customer.
This kit will be priced very well for a 50cc plane. It is set to retail at $329 at your LHS.
PLH is offering a reduced introductory price on this first order per my request. If you are serious about purchasing one and would like the intro price please PM me for details. Serious buyers only!!
I should have pics of the kit posted Sat. evening.
Here are some pics of the color scheme.
These are pics of my plane that we took the color scheme off of.

I forgot to add that we only have 45 kits in this first order. Don't take too long in deciding because they won't last long.

Sweet! Re: PLH Extra 330S

Ok guys I got the pics to post and I also weighed the parts out of the box.
The parts were weighed with a Berkley digital fish scale. If the weight says under 1oz then that means they were light enough that the scale would not register.
Here are the weights.
Right Wing panel 1lb 3oz
Left Wing panel 1lb 3.5oz
Fuse 3lbs
Right horizontal with elevator <=1oz
Left horizontal with elevator <=1oz
Landing Gear 12oz
All Hardware still in bag ie. weels, push rods,Tank, rod ends,pull pull cables and such. 1lb 1oz.
Cowl <=1oz
Wing tube 6oz
Cabon tail tubes <=1oz
And here are the pics.

The specs are,
Wing span 78in
Fuse 70in
wing area 1210
weight 6.5-7.2 kilograms
These are off the box and I think the wing area is off a bit. I will try and get the area calculated sometime this weekend.
This plane should weigh when rtf at between 14 to 15.5lbs depending on motor choice and such.
This plane is not on the Power-line Hobbies web site yet. I am hoping to get some vids of mine flying as soon as my DA50 gets back from service. I will post it on here and the plh site.
Thanks,
Jared
