    Extreme Flight Owners Thread

    Edge is availible in the overseas market as I understand while the laser got introduced to the US market first. I see the 74" edge being a popular airframe.

    I thought there was a new orange scheme to go with the RWB scheme on 48 and 60.

    91" Extra 300-EXP ARF

    No but they are removable. Lead just comes out of stab access hole.

    91" Extra 300-EXP ARF

    I'm running 20ga... Made mine from scratch one is 47" the other is 49". I'm sure you could get away with two 48" ers. My RX is here.

    Extreme Flight 104 Extra 300

    I took this idea from the forums... It wraps around the backside of the cylinder between the fins closest to the plug.

    Extreme Flight 104 Extra 300

    That is pretty darn close to the temps I am seeing with the baffled DA70 at -10° to 26°F ambient temps. I would admit I may be a hair short exhaust ducting, but I figured I would start small and open up if needed as temps go up. I think I'm close to 2.5:1 right now and don't have anything in...

    When you guys installed the J&J wire landing gear did you do any reinforcements to the fuse? Thanks

    I just ordered the J&J tail wheel... Went with the traditional wire arm and also added a set of compression spings.

    Terry, Nice work as always. If I do another cowl I am going to follow your post showing how you did it. Much cleaner, IMO.

    I heard spot-on did, but not personally confirmed. I know for a fact wingtote doesn't. I am looking for a nice one too that holds SFGs and zips up.

    They were both going for the ball with their eyes on it, good no call. It didn't matter to me either way, but what a good game. If they went to Lynch every time he would of for sure got it in one of them. My wife and father in law were bummed, so it would have probably been better for me if the...

    LOL, I use the white cotton gloves found at the hardware store with the thumb and index fingers cut off... Super cold I double them up. Key is cutting them just above your contact point to get the most coverage. I also use them for work in the winter.

    Looks great Sutton. Mine keeps getting stronger every time out too. Just passed the 3 gal mark yesterday, probably closer to 3.5. Loving it with the 25x8w which pulled over 43lbs briefly before settling and pulling a steady 42.75lbs at 6650RPM. A bit slower, but not bad. It might of lacked...

    Terry, where are your batts? I rather have push pull. Right now I'm happy with one 2s2700 (137g) on the wing tube and one on the side, 3" in front of the wing tube. Running the stock pull pull.

    Nice... I put the 25x8W on today and drilled a 24x10th. 25x8 looks big in comparison to the 24x9.

    Thanks I am thinking of changing out my stock one for something a little higher. I just don't want to add to much weight, but the JJ looks like a option at 3 oz. Still adding weight, but may be the best bet. I didn't see a weight on the Ohio superstar.
