My complete package i am running is the following. I'm running all AIRTRONICS equipment, the NEW SD-10G radio ROCKS!! I'm running the airtronics 94780M servo's all around. 2 per aileron, one per stab, 2 on rudder, and a 94772M on throttle. I am running a DLE 111 with stock stacks at this time, may run pipes or can's at a later point. I've got carbon EVERYTHING
I'd like to thank Graph Tech RC for all the help they have given me with custom cutting etc. Im running a carbon wing and stab tube's, carbon airfoiled main gear and tail gear, and a carbon spinner, 4.5 inches. Im running a XOAR 27x10 propeller as well. I have two fromeco Li-Ion 5200mah packs for rx and servo power, and will be running my ignition from my rx power .

Thanks guy's! That is my builder and his vehicle in the drive way, i was the one snapping the pictures. I am currently on my way home from Toledo Ohio right now, driving through Kentucky at the moment, I will be home some time tomorrow am, and getting ready for an event on saturday, will snap more pictures then and post asap! Thanks for all the nice comments! This build went together really good, there will be a FULL build thread to come step by step, will work on that this weekend and get it posted as well in a timely manor.

I personally saw Kyle fly this 260 last Saturday at the Dallas RC club field and man can he fly. He torque rolled this baby about a foot off the deck in a 15 mph wind that blew it from one end of the runway to the other (500'). So cool. He made me proud to admit I built this thing. Great plane and electronics. No problems at all and one of the easiest builds I've done. Kyle is a super pilot!! One of the best I've ever seen. Airtronics and Ace Hobby/TOC have a great product. Watch out for Kyle next year, I'm sure ther will be some buzz on this kid.
