Saw some video of the MX at SEFF on Flight Pass in the USA along with thier bipe and it looked pretty good but as the guy from PA was saying its not a park flyer. Its much bigger faster and more powerful.
Guess it depends what you want to do with it and where you want to fly it.
For park flying Zac and I fly up to a 25 size 4S electric which has unlimtied vertical and allows us to practice IMAC in a park or large oval

Have a look at the Sebart range as well, Sebastiano has got some really nice electric models out that fly extremly well and he is now making larger electric models up to 30% size!

Gotta echo roysters sentiments here, mate of (and soon to be me as well) are using the sebart Suhkoi 30 E and 50E as park flyers.

Both are outstanding at both Freestyle and Imac, well worth a look.

Cheers,


Jeff

My third flight:

Not very advanced flying, but it is really a great plane with extreme power with Thrust 50/Quantum ESC !

I know where there is a Sebart Katana 120 going cheap, ready to go add receiver. Complete with 2 sets of flight pack batteries, only go 4 flights on it. Only reason i'm regretfully selling is, I've just bought a 3m

Roy if you want it, it will cost you $1200 just like everyone else, comes with Dualsky F3A Motor, Turnigy K-Force 70amp Speedy, Hitec 5646MG's all round with Secraft arms. Li-fe for receiver battery. JR Gold Switch, wing bags and 4x4000mah Zippy 20c 5S Pack, which gives you 2 flight packs. Just add receiver and fly away. Free freight to Dubbo

It is a really amazing airplane, IMO there is no comparison right now this is the only airplane in this size that has this weight and flys on 2200 packs, the most convenient part of it is exactly that, you don't need to go buy expensive packs to fly this airplane, pretty much anyone that flys electric has 2200 packs! i recommend you guys give www.extramx.net a visit and check out the videos

here is a few pics of mine, curently preparing a vid of it, so far i can tell you that it is the best airplane i have flown and i don't want to fly any other airplane that is not this one for now, it has no bad habits and is a 3d pilot dream come true!

Its good to see an MX thread going on here on FG. This plane really is a killer aerobatic machine. 3D is out of this world and precision is giant scale like. With the wing loading so light it flies like a much larger plane. Anybody in or around the South Carolina area is welcome to come fly my MX or any of the PA planes for that matter.

Check out this vid:
