Default Re: Precision Aerobatics EXtra 260!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I just ordered mine a few days ago and am anxiously awaiting its arrival. I am new to electrics and I am excited about the idea of having a little plane that I can keep assembled in the car and fly at lunch. I ordered it from chief and got the hacker a30 motor and ESC and 2 flightpower packs (the 25c ones). I actually understand very little about the power system, but chief was confident it would work well and they said it is better than the PA system. From the pics it seems like a great plane.

They are GREAT little planes... fly like big foamies on high rates... but still track very nice lines......

Which Hacker? I'm sure that will be fine... I've used the Torque 900 motor and it hauls it around very well...
I'm assuming it is the Hacker 16M motor.....

should do quite well...

the plane goes together very easily and the carbon fusion is just darn good looking!!

Enjoy

Hi, this plane is awesome. Mine has the Thrust 30 motor, Quantum 40 esc, carbon spinner, apc-e 13-6.5 prop,flight power 2170mah battery, 3 hs-65HB & 1 hs-65MG on rudder. High alpha knife edge, hovers ,flat spins etc are really nice and controllable. Very stable and almost floats to land by itself. I added some white stripes of covering film to the underside of mine to help out in low light flying. Heres a short vid of mine.
