FTFC-25 MS Design And Build, Extra 300

[Houndpup Rc]

I wish I could say how awesome the extra flew, unfortunately I was one of the people oblivious to the weather and showed up at FF Wednesday night, not only that, I put everything in the build tent, only to have everything crushed and soaked just a few hours later😩

Nooo!

Nooo!

I lost every plane I brought! I was so excited to be there I ignored the weather forecast

Not to mention I set up my tent and put everything other than my plane supplies
In it! Tent poles were cracked in half and everything in side absolutely soaked! Nothing like sleeping in your car with soaking wet clothes…….

Man! Too bad!

Such a Shame @balsa basher, I feel bad for you! On a side note though, I hope to fly mine this week. (Hopefully tomorrow, but we’ll see)

Flew this today, and It's amazing! Maybe better than the FT Edge 540.... And I think I can still move the CG even farther back..

Nice! It it as maneuverable as the E-Flite ultimate?

Not quite, but that's very hard to beat. 😂


But still incredibly maneuverable, but could use less nose weight. (was struggling to hover and knife edge)

Might have to build it......

I like it! (more than the edge for sure)

Picture please? Interested to see where you cut the hatch and placed the battery

And yes, I agree! Flying an extra 300 is hard to beat!

Sure! I'll do it in a bit, or maybe just a vid...

 

[Mr Man]

Hatch is pretty much the same as yours, only a slightly different shape. Battery went halfway under the hatch. But I'm going to move It farther back next time to make it easier to hover.

Are you a good 3D pilot @balsa basher ?
