Tom - have you tried a bigger prop on a slightly lower kv motor as a comparison? Just wondering how it would feel on a 16x8 for example.

Seems like there is a lot of prop ripping in all the videos I have seen, especially in the hover. It's a non-issue with the huge power surplus but though I would ask.

Caught a few pics of Chris flying his at Nashville this past Saturday. The airplane is very nice construction, overall flying characteristics look impeccable.

Thumbs up Re: ExtremeFlightRC 58" Extra 300 hits England

How much does the glow version weigh with the Saito .82 ? I've got one sitting around.

I don't think Chris Hinson gets enough credit for his efforts in making his designs look "scale " . His designs look better than anything out there, while also being tweaked for optimum flight performance.

How has it held up with the Saito? Is the covering still on? I have an Inspire that flies freaking awesome, but the covering is peeling off, despite the fact that it is billed as glow airplane. Same thing with a Reactor.

Is it true that it comes with a pilot, panel, and wing bags? (edit: guess it does. Awesome!)
