I used just what the manual said to use said to use . That is why it was rewriting . And yes i did get a new 260 from them and had more trouble out of it than the first . So two years later all was forgotten and i picked up a 100cc yak boy was that a mistake . And im not the only one that has had trouble with them maybe im the only one with balls to tell them just what i think of them..

So Bodywerks you can kiss all the ass you want to with AW , But i think thay suck.....

Aeroworks one of the best companies out there for customer service period. They are in the same league as DA. No kiss ass here, just a statement of facts as they pertain to me. Could it be that you came across in a rather kurt fashion to them and they responded in kind?

A month ago I bought a new AW Extra 300 put 10 flights on the plane and noticed a bow in the wing tube that seemed a bit out of the norm to me. Without any question as to flying style, the guys at Aeroworks apologized, which they didn't need to do, and sent out a carbon fiber tube at no charge. The call was placed on a Wednesday morning. Brand new tube was delivered Friday evening for the weekend flying. What more could you ask?

I agree

They were like HS 625mg's that Tpooper used, and set it up for full 3D throw. So He has given us some useful information about planes here:
DON'T SKIMP ON THE QUALITY OF YOUR EQUIPMENT!!!
Also, don't use a rubber mallet to "set" your wing tube into the wing socket...

Head . And how would you know how my plane was setup? If your going to talk dont do it out of your ass..

Cool thread ! I vote Chevrolet.

Not much respect for the guy stompin' his plane. Tells a little about stability.

jamesrxx951 · 08-20-2009, 10:51 PM

FORD FORD FORD FORD

theres always one in the crowd

it would be nice to get back on topic though. i am curious on ACTUAL comparisons on the 2 planes. i have seen both fly and haven't flown either. but they do both seem to be great airplanes. i also see them both at imac events so they gota both be pretty good.

3daviator · 08-20-2009, 10:58 PM

Dodge
