Would Appreciate IMAC Airframe Suggestions for my New 3W 220 (4) Cylinder Competition Engine.

Most Likely going to run Canisters
Not interested in Bi-Planes

Thanks In Advance

Kamaero extra 300, Carden 124 Extra 300, and Jtech has several viable models.

Those are excellent options above, but to add to the list there is also the PNW Aircrafters Extra 300. If you want an ARF there is the AJ Laser 230 123" designed for the 200 to 222cc 4 cylinder motors.

Any feed back on the CARF 3.3M YAK 55SP
131” WING SPAN
116” LENGTH

I vote Jtec MX2 or Dalton Extra ML or the Yak.
if you do decide to stick with an ARF the AJ Aircraft 123" laser, EF 123" Lase or the new Comp ARF Extra 330.

Hello ! I would go with the AJ Aircraft 123" laser or Extreme Flight Extra 300 V2, both are excelent planes!!!

CARF Extra 330LX 40%

Watch out it is very long and many motor boxes will have to be cut to accept it. Balance points are also something to watch out for.

I had one in an EF Extra.

AirBoss,

Ray at CARF, advised against the new Extra 330 LX, instead he suggested the 3.1M SC version or the 3M Sukhoi, or 3.3M Yak.

I agree with the above. the 330 sc is a good choice as is others list further above.

Here are the airframes I've flown for IMAC rated top to bottom (1 least favorite and 10 most favorite)

Carden 118/DA150 - 10
Carden Pro/DLE222 - 10
H9 Sukhoi/DA150 - 9
H9 Sukhoi/DA170 - 9
Carden Pro/DA150 - 8
Dalton ML/DLE222 - 7
Dalton ML/DA170 - 6
3DHS 103" Extra330SC/DLE120 - 6
AJ Laser 115/DA150 - 5
AJ Laser 123/DLE222 - 4

The problem is not what is a good airframe but what will it fit in due to the length and weight of it.

I have a Dalton 300ml with a 3W 220. It’s been a great combo for the past 6 years of Unlimited competition flying. Lots of power and a solid airframe choice.
I would go with a CamAero Extra or Carden Pro. They look better and are a better build design.

I am curious on why you scored the AJ Lazer so low. I have the Sukhoi and I love that air frame. The Lazer was a surprise to me though.
