Im sorry......Yes I was wondering compared to other 50cc planes, do you know how the size of this one compares? Specs dont always tell the whole story, there is quite abit of size variation in the 50cc class. Thanks......871

I guess tank size can depend on your style of flying, but I like 16 ounce tanks in 50 cc size planes for 3 D. Eighteen ounces should be plenty?

Can't wait to hear the flight report. Pilot is coming to the front with Chief. I hope SD and Ace Hobby are happy together......since they screwed it up.

Re: Pilot RC extra 300 88" Build

Hi all
the engine she is on
had to do a little modifying to the alu brackets and had to put the alu bracket on the other side to get it all 100% lined up.

the prob hub while being at a 2 degree angle lines up 100% down the center line of the fuse
