    Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

    I'm using 1 fromeco 5600 relion(good for 8-10 flights :) ). I'm thinking of going to a single 2500ish lipo, changing from a 16oz to 12oz tank, and maybe changing the 3.25" truturn spinner to a CF spinner. That should shave off a decent amount of weight.

    Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

    Got 3 flights today on my MXS. I'm really loving the plane with the DA35. I'm still running the Falcon 20x9 and don't plan on changing it out anytime soon. Finally got to take an rpm reading, I'm getting 7460 with the 20x9. I'm thinking I'll keep it on the jtec pitts. I was going to get the ES...

    Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

    Also, if you've followed the iPhone 6 release they had a bunch of bugs and already had to issue an update to solve the problems. So even big companies like Apple have issues. Brand new products usually are not perfect no matter who you're talking about

    Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

    I just mentioned how the single blind nut works perfect because the square part of the axle also helps keep the pants in place.

    Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

    Turnbuckles are fine. I used the stock ones setup as shown in the manual. Works great. They were just in the wrong bag. People who are using longer ones are installing their elevator servos backwards (on purpose) My wheels are fine, they just needed slight drilling. No biggie. For the guys...

    Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

    To be fair this is absolutely the best 35cc plane I've flown imo. Hopefully when you get it in the air it'll be worth the trouble. Also, I believe these are the first production. I'm sure Chris will be having a talk with the factory to improve these minor issues. Honestly I never expect...

    Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

    Well that's a bummer. Mine needed to be drilled out or they wouldn't roll at all. What did you replace them with?

    extreme flight 74" edge. any news.?

    The last update I heard was about the 74" Laser being on the water. Actually it should arrive in a few weeks. They didn't say the Edge was on the water yet but they did say they will first get the gas version in stock before the electric version.

    Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

    I really want to try the tips but the roll rate is about where I like it now. If I add the tips I'm sure it'll slow down my roll too much for my taste. Loving the plane so far

    Lodi Huckfest 2014

    Lol thanks but I was just having a blast doing rolls and snaps cause that cortex made every roll stop SO crisp. All I know is I want a cortex, at least for my small electric plane. It was a really cool gyro.

    Extreme Flight 76/83" MXS

    Just got home from being at the field all day. By the end of the day I was really feeling the plane. Tried no sfgs or tips for a few flights then went to just SFGs. Never tried the tips. I REALLY like the SFGs. The plane flies great without them as well but I was really diggin' the plane with...

    EG 120cc Slick By Aztech Aeromodels

    Actually my wheel had been rubbing against the wheel pant which wore the rubber down until it fell apart. In my case I needed to move my wheel stopper so my wheel was more centered in the wheel pant. Now that I do need new wheels though, I'm going to grab some spotOnRC 4" flywheelz when they...
