Great job Juan! Gorgeous! How are you liking the plane? How does it compare to the Extreme Flight/ Skywing planes in the 67 inch class? Thanks for your time mate!

Thanks! I've been really liking it. To be honest, there's not a big difference in flying characteristics. The max roll rate on this one is a bit slower on the Pilot, but I think it's related to the Extreme Flight having the aileron hinges sealed, and the Pilot doesn't. I'm planning to seal them and see. The biggest difference is in the assembly. The Pilot 67" NG is a old model (released about 3 years ago), vs some of the EF/Skywings are newer releases that come with more of the work done for you. Once in the air, they're all awesome. I really like the 67" size for something very simple and compact, that still has a feel close to the big 120cc planes

@@skyboundrc Thank you for that insight! I love the EF/Skywing 60-67 inch class. I have 4 now and plan to get more. They really are amazing, especially the Extra NG, which, in my opinion, just fly's a little better. I've been looking at the Pilot RC planes, and I have had my eye on this exact one. Love the green/carbon scheme! I've never bought one because they are a little more expensive, and the shipping is also way more than Extreme Flight charges. Also, I've heard that Pilot is a little step down from EF. That, of course, is just someones opinion. I'm happy to hear you really like yours, and I respect your opinion. I think, at some point, I will give Pilot RC a try. Thanks again, Juan!

I'd say flying wise they're all in the same level. Construction, level of assembly and quality, depends on the specific model. The newer EF/Skywing 67" are really good, but on the other hand, the latest 103" PilotRC models are a step above in my opinion (my new Laser is the best aerobatic plane I've ever had, both in terms of materials, level of completion, accessories included and in flying characteristics).

That’s great to hear! I’m excited to try Pilot RC! The fact that these two companies can and will compete against each other for superior planes, just means, we, the consumer, win. Thanks again for your time and insight, Juan! I really appreciate it!
