    Best Aircraft Servos

    I was all hitec forever but have morphed into a loyal savox guy for the last couple of years-- especially since the 1270 came out.

    Extreme Flight Extra 300 91"

    So when you install a canister... Is the goal to have it locked down tight so it can't move? ... Or do you want it to be able to move a little as the engine moves? I'm planning a bracket on the top of the tunnel opposite the header end with a protected tie wrap. Question is: how tight do you...

    Extreme Flight RC 91" Yak 54 build

    FYI - I ordered a Mejzlik on Jan 12 and still haven't received it. Stuck in customs I understand. As a comparison, www.falconpropellers.com is a few hours drive from me and gets props in my hands in 1-2 days. Timing might be perfect to put the Mej on the 91" Extra.

    I got in some much needed imac practice with my wife as the caller. Never had such a beautiful women bark at me about "I said REVERSE cuban eight". How sexy.

    Do you remove your stabs for transport?

    91" Extra 300-EXP ARF

    Just searched the manual and found nothing regarding the elevator servo extensions. After 10 builds with EF, I'm noticing this is about the lightest manual I've seen from them. I do know that in the 91" Yak manual they say 48" if you plan to remove the stab for transport and 36" if you don't...

    Extreme Flight Extra 300 91"

    Scooter - I see you had to cut a small relief hole on the left side of your cowling for the da-70 spark plug cap clearance. For some reason I was thinking you didn't need it on the Extra, but your pictures confirm you do. I had to do it on the 91" yak also but was hoping for a no-hole...

    91" Extra 300-EXP ARF

    Same here. That must have been from their last version of the manual. Yeah - I like the simplicity of his setup, but like the physics of the pull-pull myself. I'm sure if Chris H. said the push pull is ok, then it will work. I'm just an engineer by trade and feel better with the pull-pull...

    Servos and engine mount should be showing up today... which means all parts are now in house. Too bad the weather is so nice... All my build time is spent flying. Ha ha

    91" Extra 300-EXP ARF

    I got the 2:1 header and can from da. I have friends with smoke so I don't have to do it :) I'm not at that point in the build yet, but not too sure about the header and throttle servo taking up the same space. We will see... But I am very excited about the setup. The da70 on my 91" yak is just...
