Hi Ed, gorgeous looking plane, great video thanks. The manual is very vague, you can fit pull pull rudder or pull push like you have? The manual gives the measurements for the site of the pull pull horn, so you can cut the covering to expose the slot , but for the pull push it states the measurement as N/A. Is it obvious where it is? Likewise for the servo slot? I've just got the 67" extra, had 4 flights. Is the Laser very different? I dont like the pull pull system, looks messy

There are 4 screws that hold the cowling on, 2 at the bottom 2 on top with provision of another at the top in the middle . Do you use it with a captive nut or settle for the four already in place? I have a spare screw and captive nut and wonder if that's what it's for?

What thread size are the ball links where they screw into the servo arms, M2 or M3mm? Looks nice, about to buy one but cant decide on colour, grey and black for UK skies are out

Hello, did it come with the servos installed? It looks great btw😊

I did it and has worked a few times, then head up an nothing more hapend , servo to the bin 😢

Excellent run through I think we need more of these detailed type pix .. far too many endless flying showing off .. of no help to others on a “how to” basis. Well done Cheers Ray NZ

Hello about the rudder servo, it’s posible to put in the rear part ?

Watch those servo wires on the composite laminate, vibs will cut through them

Hi, do You have a flight video with this nice machine?...

Hi, can someone plese tell me what "EXP" stands for in the model name?...

I loved it, quick question regarding the servos, does the plane hae the spcae for standard servos or it has to be mino servos? i have Savox SV-1270TG i would like to use, any feedback please. thanks

What’s the extra wire not plugged into the receiver? Nice setup!

Hi Ed, where did you find the best CG, please? Is it in the middle of the wing tube? Thanks

Prop pitch is conventionally measured at a specified radius, usually 2/3 or 3/4 of radius. This is entirely arbitrary, since the measured pitch will usually be different at each radiius. Pitch measured in this way will allow a rough sorting of props, but it is useless for performance analysis.

There is geometric pitch and aerodynamic pitch. They are not the same. Geometric pitch is how far the blade element chord would move forward as if it was a screw, moving with the blade element chord tangent to the line of advance. Propellers can not work like that. They do not screw through a solid medium. The blade element must have an attack angle relative to the path through the air to develop lift. The distance travedled through the air is less than the geometric pitch. I prefer to call that the advance; the distance traveled through the air in one revolution. My comment was on the geometric pitch. The geometric pitch can be calculated from the blade element angle at each radius. Almost all props I have measured have a different geometric pitch at each radius.

That will give you the pitch at the 30 degree blade angle. But the pitch usually varies along the blade, different at each radius.

Very nice build. Just finished mine. Can i ask you a question? Where is your CG ? By their mark if i put my 5000 mah 6s Gens ace 730 mg i’m tail heavy. Thank you

Looking forward to the maiden

Great build. I epoxy 0.5mm carbon plates on the sides of the outer motorbox as it's a weak spot in the 67in pilot. Absolutely awesome plane & my fav atm.

How did the powerbox sensor v3 work for you? I thought it was for smaller planes, but it's a good option. I just bought the same plane and I'm thinking about which regulator to use. Thanks and regards

Great build. What is your average flight time?

Nice build, approximate flight time with that configuration?

'Promosm'

Nice build and great accessory fitting..

if i buy where can i go and pay someone to assemble

Very impressed with everything except the motor mounting bolts. It would appear to create some significant point loads on the box and has no bracing. I assume by now you have plenty of hours on the plane. Has this been an issue?

What do you prefer between this Extreme Flight 78" and the Pilot RC Extra NG 78"?

nice build, but can you fly?

That is so cool 😎

Can u tell me we're u bought this plane please thanks

One day I will have one......one day

Hi guys! Do you know where I can purchase one of those ?

Great plane Ed

como te quedó de nivelado el centro de gravedad? veo que el regulador de 120A tendrías que haberlo montado bajo los tornillos bancada del motor, ya nos contarás los 6 elementos de Lipo que le pones, el avión parece muy Ligero, ponle Giroscopos al automático o botón de Pánico, te sacará de muchos apuros. buen avión, ni demasiado Grande, ni tan pequeño.

I feel like I just watched one of those videos they make for a person for their funeral lol. But for a plane. Great flying plane though. Love mine.

I think I finally found what I am looking for. A plane made with top quality construction and not all Styrofoam. Not going to be cheap but don't mind paying for the quality. And thanks for this excellent vid showing off all the parts and pieces, great job!

Hello, just wondering how you managed to wrap the tail so well, I had a mare of a time trying to do mine and still haven't found a decent tutorial for it

🙌 Promo`SM!!

Nice plane. Did you balance at the indicated CG location? It seems a bit too far back

Hi , I am trying this motor on my 67 " slick , since the Dualsky ga2000 is unavailable. Would my Avian 100amp esc be sufficient spinning a 16 x 10 prop ?

Hi Ed thank you for the unboxing video... I'm just in the process of building mine at the moment after owning 2 67in Slicks I've added lots of reinforcement to the small motorbox essentially making it strong enough if the prop hits the ground the PROP breaks! Instead of it ripping these extremely weak motor boxes out!!!...I added carbon fiber 4mm X 4mm rods along all 4 sides/corners and drilled holes through main motorbox firewall and glued these in place plus I also added the Balsa fillets that come with the kit down the inside corners and then glued/screwed into the ends of these to the main firewall to hold it in..plus I also made another piece of plywood and glued this onto the front face...these are weak too!! Great planes but this little motor box lets them down IMHO. What made you choose that particular Dualsky motor? I run the Dualsky GA2000R with an hobbywing 120A and it pulls 135A on a 18 x 10 prop...I love the motor 25cc petrol equivalent. I have KZbin videos if your interested under David Hall 67in Slick Love to see your progress building it.. There a lot longer than the Slick 5 inch I've also added some carbon rods to some of the vertical uprights after realising there's NO UPRIGHT VERTICAL Carbon fiber in these planes...and I've had a few tumbles with mine and the internal vertical plywood can break up... I like your idea for 3 inch Dubro wheels especially off grass strips!!! I tried one of those YEP ESC on a 60 in plane I have with a Sunnysky motor and I couldn't get a SETTING Even with the program card I tried allsorts of combinations of timing etc but gave up in the end it just kept stuttering... I'll try and upload some Video of the Motorbox modifications to KZbin.😉

Always good to watch your unboxing video's

Thanks for the response. Is the triangle stock used to beef up the landing gear and firewall?

How did you manage the build without the build manual? Any problems?

Max size propeller? 25"?

Great straight forward explanation

Good one Ed

How do the ailerons work? Are there four servos.

I remember climbing up there as a young boy, I wonder if there is any fish in the rivers up there?

Hi! Where did you get those motor support rods? How did you secure them to the motor box? Are they working well? Thanks for your answers.
