    Extreme Flight Extra 300 EXP Clean Sheet

    Guys- Does anyone have a 48" blue elevator for sale? I broke the counterbalance on mine and after repairing it- I'm just not happy with my results. I think I'd just prefer to put a new elevator on it. Please PM me if you have one for sale. Thanks!

    3DHS 58" Edge 540

    As many airframes as I have bought and as much money as I have spent with 3DHS, I did not think it was unreasonable for me to ask them for a simple phone call, which still has not come. The only reason this ever went to the internet was because of the company’s stubborn refusal to simply pick...

    I respect the request and the forum. Fair enough- and enjoy the machines, guys. Lots of fun for sure.

    I'll post more later- and apologies if I misled here somehow- but I don't think I did (nor did I intend) to ask for a replacement. I just sent a note stating the facts and asked for a phone call.

    Sorry to confuse- I did receive an email- reporting exactly what you captured. I wasn't convinced this had been dealt with appropriately, so I asked to speak to Noll. There is more to this story- and without the benefit of a conversation, this is easily dismissed. If I allowed that, I would...

    The only real disappointment is the lack of a phone call. Every time I called in the past- or sent a pm, I was able to speak with someone. For some reason this time, it has been very quiet. That said, I am still waiting to speak with Noll. ...and thanks hosam. :)

    Guys, I'm almost sorry to have even mentioned this. At this point, I'm waiting on a call from Noll to discuss the event, as I'm not sure he has been involved with this. 3DHS has always been fair to me in the past- since I first started purchasing planes there back in the spring of 2010. The...

    I can't tell you guys where the initial failure point was- I can only state it was clearly the wing tube. I agree with some of the assumptions about the wing placement after the impact. I don't remember adding power to try to shallow/slow the descent, but the plane clearly had forward...

    Tried to PM Noll. I sent an email to 3DHS with pictures as well, but was told there was nothing they could do.

    Yes. The pictures tell the story, really. The wing tube broke in the middle; folded up like a swan, then down it came.

    I'm sure mine was a one-off; I'm sure yours will be fine. There are many of these flying without any problems- and were flown much more aggressively than I flew this in the 2 flights.

    Me neither; not sure. I put full elevator in to begin a parachute (pretty slow speed)- and the plane rotated, then the wings folded. You can see what happened after that.

    Gary, Looks great- let us know how the maiden goes. I finished mine Sunday night and did a maiden on Monday morning. It flew very well for the first battery pack. Mine is set up for 3300 4s and a 16x8.

    The deal is the same year around for the power system combo and airframe. It is a great deal anytime you are in the market for a new plane. These planes are very durable as well. A bud was flying a 48" MXS today- smacked an SFG on the ground hard, doing something- while half-way through a...
