Default FG MADNESS!! 3.2 M FG JTEC Extra and 3DHS 126" FG Slick!
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH YEA! I'm as happy as a pig rollin in slop!

My credit card is melted, my brain is melted and my wife is about to push the "Shiny red button" on me, but ya know what?!?! The following pictures make it all worth while!

Allow me to introduce you to my two pride and joys.

I am 99.9% finished with my FG Schemed JTEC 3.2 Meter Extra, and I just took delievery of my FG schemed 126" 45% 3DHS AJ SLICK!!

These bad boys make me so freaking happy I could split at the seems.

The JTEC will be at SNAP A HUCKFEST, the Slick.. well it's gonna take some time to get this puppy flying! (13 SERVOS!!)

I am a very proud papa, showing off my "Brutha's from anotha Mutha!"

I officially have perma-wood!




That last pic shows an FG HAT on the canopy... YEA!! IT's BIG!!!

It is generally pretty hard to make our Extra's look small or atleast average size! Two very nice airplanes you have there Sleepy.

That will be a really nice weight for the 330 especially since it is the older design. We will have to get it all dialed in at the Snap-A-Huckfest.

Now get some servos and put the slick together and you will have two really really nice flying airplanes.

I am so stoked about this Jammer!
I worked on this plane non-stop from 9pm - 3am for the past 2 weeks.
