Composite-ARF Extra 330
Dave Stoik
Prunedale, CA
This gorgeous Extra took Dave only 45 hours to assemble! With a
wingspan of 118 inches and a weight of 351/2 pounds, this Extra
needs quite a bit of power to get into the air, and the Desert
Aircraft 150cc engine provides it. Dave souped up his model with
a set of Dalton Aviation carbon-fiber exhaust canisters, an
Emcotec DPSI power box, dual Fromeco 4400mAh 7.4 lithium-ion
batteries, 9 JR 8611 servos, 1 Hitec 5925 high-speed digital
servo for throttle control, a Fromeco 2100mAh Li-ion battery for
ignition, Airmodels' 32x11 propeller and, of course, mid-grade
gasoline with a 100:1 Amsoil premixed fuel. Dave's Extra is sure
to keep your eyes on the sky!
>Richmond RC Harvard II
Jim Meagher
Naperville, IL
Check out all of the high-tech modifications in this ARF! Jim
has dressed up his plane with scale lights, a red rotating
beacon, dual-wingtip Xenon strobe lights and an LED in the
cockpit. He also modified the wing to accept 2 servos instead
of the recommended 1 for the model's ailerons. Jim's Harvard II
even uses flaperons. He powers his model with a GMS .61
engine and also outfitted the plane with a Slimline Pitts
muffler, a Futaba T6XA radio, 7 Hitec RCD servos and
a Hydrimax 1450mAh battery pack.
