    It was really easy to keep the wires lean in this plane. I'm now considering carbon vinyl or a thin carbon sheet to lay across the tray.

    Extreme Flight 74" Laser

    That's too bad. I was under the impression they brought more stuff. Other vendors usually bring lots to sell (or so i hear). Hope to make it this year and see for myself.

    3D PAU 100cc EXTRA 300sp

    I set up the choke with a carbon pushrod going from the arm to the can tunnel cover plate. I glued an aluminum tune into the cover plate to keep the carbon from from catching on the wood.   I will be reaching through the hole in the bottom of the cowl for choke actuation

    I flew a friends edge the other day and it was absolutely awesome. If you want an all out 3d plane, go for the edge. If you want a freestyle/precision/fast high energy type of plane, I would go for the extra.

    I should have mentioned this; I am using slightly larger than stock Robart Hinge-points on the rudder to prevent hinge damage.

    This weekend I visited Washington DC for the first time. Unfortunately I didn't get to have to much fun as I was there for college interviews, but I did get a chance to stop at the smithsonian air and space museum. For all you aviation gurus like myself, this is a must see. They had...

    Savox for EF 104 Extra

    I highly recommend the 2231's. I used them on my last 104 extra and was very pleased with the performance. The gears didn't last long at all, but they ran well.
