Default Pilot RC Extra 300 Build with custom Design
I will be starting a build on a new Pilot RC Extra 300 with a custom design. I am just sending the design off to Tony to start building, cant wait.

I will post photos and info as the build goes.

I went with the combo deal, DL 100, canisters and carbon.

No problem would love to design one for you. I have several other designs I was working on and ended up using the one above. I can print and cut all the lettering, logos and full color graphics when you ar ready.

Attached is a picture of an Extreme Flight YAK I did with flames.

Update:

Been working with Tony on the custom scheme for my new Extra 300. Here are some pictures of the progress so far. He says they should have it completed by the end of the week and ready to ship.

Tony has been great to deal with making sure everything turns out as I planned.

I will continue to post pictures throughout the project.

How cool is it to see your plane being built!

Showoff,

Great work with the design!! I love the color combo, my favorite. If you don't mind me asking, what design software are you using? I would love to tinker with something like that
