Re: DR Hobbies 2.6M Extra
Brent,
With the 2 tank set up, how did you mount the throttle servo to keep it out of the fuel/oil lines? If you can squeeze the camera in there that would be great. Jason |

Re: DR Hobbies 2.6M Extra
Did the maiden on my Extra today, and she flew great! Very little trim needed on elevator and aileron. CG was right on when checking 45 upline inverted. I'm going to have to add a washer on the engine mount to correct the thrust line but other than that everything seems to be fine. She tumbles really nicely!!! Going to try and get the smoke going tomorrow. Charles had his camera at the field and took some good pics. Perhaps he'll post them on this thread for all to see.

Re: DR Hobbies 2.6M Extra
I put 4 more flights on her yesterday and got the smoke working. I'm getting a little bit more comfortable with the plane but not thrashing her around just yet. I also tinted the canopy and polished out the spinner. She's really looking good!!
