Extreme Flight E Yak vs Extra

[Stainless Skills]

What props was Fred using in each video?

I hope you or Fred don’t take it personal but because of the way he flew I really cant tell which setup fly's better. I believe you that you need a larger diameter prop to be more stable in 3d but that guy couldn’t hold a torque role to save his life, every time the planes belly faced him he would loose it. He made hovering and basically just flying around look soooo hard I cringed watching. Other than that he just did violent snaps and some harriering so I have no idea which setup fly's better from the videos.

I think I am just going to get a 12X6 and a 13X4 to run with my 4S and see how it fly's.

If I have trouble with the esc or the plane fly's bad then I will spend months saving up to change the power system, I hope I don’t have to though.

It looked like it flew great and was stable in a harrier but I couldn’t not tell if the guy sucked on the corrections or if the plane was just a bad flyer. I really need to hurry up and fly it though before I post again.

In the 3s vid he was using a 14X7 in the 4s vid he was using a 12X6. I thought these vids were good at demonstrating my point. He had a much easier time with the 3s setup than he did with the 4. You will be happy with this plane. It is the best thing going. Its great on 4s but better on 3s. All my opinion so take to for what you want.

Now that I watch them again he did have an easier time on the 3S and the plane looked a little more unstable on the 4S. I get your point and I hope it mine turns out to be a great flying plane either way.

Ok, now you have piqued my interest on the 3S issue.

I have not watched the vids in months.

post links on the 3S and the 4s here in the thread so we can compare side by side. I have only flown the 4s and love it, but yes, I would love to try different setups just for giggles. But, first I want to watch you guys are watching.

Going out right now to burn 2 4s packs on Christmas morning.

the video's we are watching are at the bottom of page 4 on this thread. They were posted about 5 posts earlier.

If your going to practice IMAC stuff, I'd go for the 4S set up. You can still 3D, but the 16.8V gives you the vertical authority to perform the sequence manuevers. If your just going to just kick it around with lower 3D slow flying stuff, try the 3S set up. It will fly lighter.

I am putting together one of the Extreme Flight E Extra 300 and ran into a little bit of a delema that I hope someone here can shed some light on.
I am assembling the tail and it says that after glueing the elevator halves together to slip the assembly through the stab slot then insert the stab........
Yeah Right!





Anyone else on here built one of these and can shed some light on the subject.

Looking for wings, lg, cowl, and wheel pants for the 88" EF extra if anyone knows where someone has a busted fuse and good wings let me know, thanks.
