ya the wiring on landing gear terrible, always bent, question, i notice that i had to trim the aileron way too much, but the linkage is on right hole and when i look at plane surface looks straight, is that normal?

I could not get the tail wheel to assemble based on the instructions - things did not line up.
I added an aftermarket tail wheel and I'm still working on it to get it right.
It flies nice for the sport aerobatics I do.
Nice wood prop, good magnets on hatch,
gray on a sport / 3d plane does not appeal to mean - so I painted over the gray with blue and added some red trim -
now more visible in air, yellow/ black paint pattern on the bottom is great,
the wheel pants are very close to the ground and scrape easily on landing,
I'm getting 4 1/2 min with my sport flying - on a 4 cell -
the motor is bigger than I need - may try something smaller and maybe a longer flight time

The wire landing gear on this plane just doesn’t cut it. Aside from that design flaw I love my extra!

[Thebankfisher]

I love mine! Don't discontinue it

Wow when you say set up straight out of the box, do you mean the Horizon guy has no custom mixes and rates set up on his tx? Absolutely per the manual?

Great flying. Do you know anybody flying with a 4s 2200mah pack. Will it balance with that size and what are the flight times. Let me know please. THANKS.

This plane sucks without the gyro servos don’t trim cg is very narrow seems to always fly different very frustrating so far been flying for years without gyros.

[richardmiddleton]

3200mah 4s should get you at least 7 minutes unless you're hovering and WOT the whole flight!

[dwproductions]

This Is an awesome airplane but it is not a 3D airplane. It does big air maneuvers very well but it does not hover or harrier well at all in the hands of a normal pilot.

What are you going to do when the FAA bans all RC flight with their new proposed rule? No plane, heli, quad may fly without an internet connection and live position broadcast
