Default extra 300 s

i started this plane in 97 time to decide what to do with it, i wonder about the weight compared to todays 35% planes. it weighs a little heavy at 15lbs no motor servos or batterys, i thought about trying basic imac next year with it just for fun,

If the plane can be made to fly straight it will work for IMAC Basic class, go for it!

carden extra 300s never been flown, worried about the weight it was built for scale, full copit, glassed panel lines, rivets etc. how much does the new 35% extras weigh, thought about taking out the copit and lightening the firebox or just strip the glass off and monokote. but i think about the hours i spent glassing and painting. i think id rather see how it flies be fore i do that
