[quote=snap a saurus;928432]That would be awesome with a DA200, someone build One for me.

Snap you can just give the sensei your 60%er and let him put it on a diet. That baby will stand on its tail then.

As the designer/builder of the first HUGE aerobatic RC plane the 70% Staudacher S-300 Bob has been at this for a quite some time. Lately Bob's focus has been on lightening airframes, and making them fly like giant foamies. We saw threads from Bob on a 40% Carden build that ended up as a sub 30 lb rocket. We saw a Hangar 9 35% Extra 260, re-construction which shaved several pounds off of it. Bob also started an 80% Extra 260 that he is still working on and hopefully will finish someday soon. But right now, Bob has been focused on his latest project. A 55% Extra 260 with a wingspan of 164", a length of 144" and will be light enough to be a rocket with only a DA 170cc!! To add to the cool factor of this project, it looks like the plane may be kitted by the new owners of Aerotech models! So, all you guys drooling over this build, save your pennies, you could possibly own one of these bad boys soon! SO.. if you did not see this amazing build, please take a look, if you have been following it, let Bob know your thoughts! It's creative and talented people like Bob that push the hobby into new grounds, and benefit us all. THANKS BOB! PLEASE KEEP AT IT! To read the entire thread click below! 55% Extra 260 Thread

I would like to give a huge thank you to Sleepy, and all the Flying Giants staff for maintaining a fantastic forum like this, I know it takes alot of your free time and without folks like you, we would not be able to share information, and make new friends that all have the same common interest, so again, a big thanks.

I would also like to thank all the FG members for the kind words and support I have received from so many of you over the years.

Sincerely,

Bob Sawyer
