    I don't but that might be a good option too. Stick the da-70 in there. My Russian wife always loved the Russian Thunder paint scheme. Have you heard about anyone sticking the DA-70 in it? ...and how it flies like that? See.... there IS a reason I follow this site :)

    Extreme Flight Owners Thread

    As I sit and wait for the 88" Edge to be back in stock (latest word from EF is January at the earliest), my mind is trying to get me to jump ship and buy the in-stock 91" extra instead. Patience is NOT one of my virtues. I've flown the 48" Edge, MXS, Yak as well as the 60" Edge and MXS and fell...

    Have you ever gotten so excited about a new plane that you bought all the parts while you were waiting on the airframe to be back in stock???

    Redwing 3D Painted Prop !!!

    Amen to that! The twins are both spending time on the simulator almost every day. Got a 48" EF edge almost ready and waiting on the 88" to show up (da-70 style). Thanks for the words! Peace

    Sorry man -- no airplanes for me for a while. They are all up in storage until life gives me a bit more time. Peace.

    Extreme Flight RC 91" Yak 54 build

    I've come to realize that getting a new plane in the air should not be done around Christmas. With 5 kids and a visiting Mom, all of my focus is on them and making sure they have a great Christmas. All that equates to no flying for a while for me. Flying will have to be done vicariously thru...

    Extreme Flight RC 91" Yak 54 build

    Just got the servo yesterday after 2+ weeks of waiting. Hope to have some time tomorrow to get it installed, and up in the air. Will take some shots and get the AUW for you too. Peace.

    rob Holland 2013 Year in Review!

    My 1 yr old twins watch the 4 Rob Holland year end videos every morning with their bottle - I call it the Tiger Woods effect. Then if they're drinking slow, they get a couple of big gasser videos. You guys would be so excited to see these little kids at the airfield. They get excited and...

    Extreme Flight RC 91" Yak 54 build

    So here we are... 9 days later and no servo yet. I called and talked to Hitec and they said they were out of stock, even though they were in stock 9 days ago. Bummer. So I wrote a poem: So here we sit... all broken hearted... tried to fly... but only farted. I got an email a few minutes...

    Extreme Flight RC 91" Yak 54 build

    Went to the garage tonight and powered the electronics up. The rudder servo worked for about a minute and went dead. As a test, I pulled it out of the plane and plugged it into the aileron channel and it started working again. One minute later... dead. So the servo works for a minute on...

    Extreme Flight RC 91" Yak 54 build

    I'll start with a new model tonight.... One other thing that I may not have explained well -- when the rudder quit working it went dead. So the rest of the radio was working but you could grab the rudder and move it. Just like it was unplugged. It wasn't stuck in place, but dead. Thanks all.
