Jon... that's why you make the big bucks.

May in fact get to stab sets, not sure though. SO how much construction needs to be done to one that tony has presheeted already? I see the two kits he has available for the 260 500 dollar difference? is it worth the 500 bucks to get on that's pre sheeted? And What all needs to be done to a pre sheeted kit? Thanks
Kyle

Excellent question! Are the servo boxes (in the wings) already installed in the sheeted kit?

Sorry guys, but due to my work load I will no longer be offering presheeted kits. I will get that taken off my website.

Sorry to hear that, that kit will not be available anymore, although i know its a time consuming project as well! But thanks for the heads up and update on that! Will be ordering a 42% Extra 260 kit within the next couple of weeks! Thanks

Now this sucks!! lol as i was getting set on the airplane i want the guy that was going to build it for me i sent him the build thread link to one that was on here and its to much work for him to be comfortable building it for me for competition. I don't blame him! And i can't afford to pay for somebody to build it right now. But will keep this plane in mind if i can find somebody that i can afford to build me one! Thanks Guys!!

tony i just called you yesterday mentioning about the presheeted kit. thanks for the post on here. going to have to figure out a way to get a new bird going. I really want to stick with a Dalton Airframe for sure. I have been VERY happy with my 260. It is a 3D machine for sure and also does precision really well. Mine just seem to come out a little tail heavy and is hard on the precision stuff. I really want a great precision airplane and looking at the ML edition. I read thru these threads hearing it wont 3d as well. I am stuck decided between the ML and the reg 300. My plan was to get a ML going and use the 260 for my freestyle stuff. I also have heard the ML will freestyle to a certain type of freestyle.

I don't think all your batteries were all the way forward were they? I'm probably going to buy a kit from Tony when I have the cash(42% 260). I'm also gona lighten the rudder and stabs. I looked at a few builds and i'm sure I can do it.

i do now and still didnt help. I could move my rx and power expander up a little. I just want to have a new plane in the works just in case something were to happen to the 260.
