    78'' Extra

    Probably more similarities than differences. It's got the carbon stringers, well built structure, precut holes, awesome fit and finish. It's just more of what you expect from a EF airframe. The best part is that it's a little bigger than everything else in it's class but still about the same...

    That looks like an AMAZING plane!! I wish i could have one...one day. For now i'm working on a gas 78'' Extra with EME 35 and will probably sell it and move the gear over to the 78'' MXS when it's released in a gas version. I'm looking forward to my first gasser but i'm having a hard time...

    Loved that video. The part where the plane rode the little bank on the side of the runway was cool :p If i had skis i would be having too much fun taxiing around and break something ahaha

    Awesome video! I may have to get one of the 48'' Extras to match the 78'' i'm building right now. I can't wait for all the 2013 offerings though! 48'' yak 60'' laser 78'' MXS 91'' Yak Hopefully the Pantera gets done too but i guess it's been put on the back burner for now. It's great that...

    78'' Extra

    Aha yeah it's going together pretty quick. That last pic is just another one of it all mocked up right out of the box. I opened the box, pulled the plane out, and slid it all together. I just finished the rudder and tail wheel last night and one wing panel this morning. I'll post up pics later.

    Motor Compatability

    I used the 130 in a 48'' Edge from EF. I worked OK with 14x7 on 3s and 12x6 on 4s but i wouldn't put a 13'' prop on it on 4s. It'll work but it won't be insane power, i prefer a motrofly that can swing a 13 or 14'' prop on 4s.

    78'' Extra

    Glued in the control horns in the stabs and hinged them both. I really like that it uses two servos for the elevator instead of a joiner because i could never get those straight. For the control horns i scuffed them up and then glued them in with 30 minute epoxy. For the hinges i used Vaseline...

    78'' Extra

    I started working on the plane. Applied CA to all the stress points and pretty much any joint i could get to and then i put on the main landing gear. I'll probably start the hinging tomorrow but i still haven't ordered any servos yet. I'm very impressed with the kit. The size is...

    78'' Extra

    Oh and by the way i thought i'd mention that even though everything came out of the box very quickly there is no doubt that it was well packaged. Double boxed with extra layer of protection inside. The cowl and accessories both get there own boxes to prevent damage to the cowl and keep the...

    78'' Extra

    Got the plane and engine today! Took about 20 minutes to open the box and mock up the plane. Gotta love all the precut holes for wing/stab tubes and servo slots. This thing is HUUUUUGE. I can not wait to get to work on this one!

    Sweet glad it went well! I found my Osiris cut through the wind without a problem and tracked great! Although the landings are long they are super stable and easy.
