Default EF 58" Extra-300 BUILD THREAD -- ELECTRIC!

Hi All,

The extra's are now here and ready to go and as I believe Dan has sold out of all of his 1st shipment of 58" extras!!!

I am hopefully receiving mine tomorrow, it is the red and blue version and is going to be all electric powered!!

Here is my setup:

Torque Revolution Motor and Airboss 80A speed Controller running on an APC-E 15x8 prop
Flight Power Evo Lite 5S1P 3700mAh batteries
Hitec HS225MG servos on ailerons and elevator and a Hitec HS5625 on rudder
Hitec Electron 6 receiver

I am hoping for an all up weight of around 5.5lbs and it should be ballistic on this with 10minutes plus flying time from the batteries.

As I believe the model goes together really easily and can be ready to flying within a day, tedious work such as the cutting of the trim on the tail plane to mate to the fuz is done etc etc

I will be providing a build thread and lots of pics and videos very soon.

any questions fire away,

cheers

Graham
