Default Aeroworks ARF QB Extra 260 50 cc

Hoping we can keep each Thread on subject (This particular size and type) and provide feedback to Rocco.

Aeroworks is going to town on there new QB offerings. Pretty sweet 50 cc AVAILABLE SOON!

Let's get the conversation going. I personally know that Rocco is very much interested in all customers feedback.

I'll pass on the word and post more pics soon when I get a chance to stop by the store this week.

As this is a QB offering, like the rest of them, It will come with a very compehensive instruction manual, prehinged and glued surfaces except for the rudder, all cut outs taken care off, just shrink up the covering, (by the way it has a nice overlap), smoke tinted canopy, all locations pre-drilled mounted and adjusted, rubber gromet washers for all locations, Tank and smoke tank pre plumbed ready to install, custom throw meter for precise adjustment of all surfaces. CD with up close installation pictures in living color . Extra covering material for your use, engine templates for various motor options, canister ready, canister template and mounting hardware etc etc etc ...

This is going to be one cool line...

Can't wait.

Here are some early released specs:
Wing Span: 84"
Wing area: 1260
Weight: 15.5#'s

Had them in Toledo.
Looked nice. Problem was they had it right under the 35% extra 260, and that thing is so FAT and Bad Ass it made the 50cc look Small.

I think the entire new batch of planes looks killer, I bet you won't keep them in stock for long.

My buddy pre-ordered the 75cc Yak... all of them look sweet!
Nice job fellas!

I believe early talks with Rocco indicated a price of $595.00 plus shipping. They will be test flying this weekend, if all goes according to plan and no major changes are needed I am sure Rocco will give me an estimate.

I'll post it as soon as I hear the word.
