Gorgeous model and it should fly as good as it looks. Can't wait for your next video !
Thank you! I'm excited to fly this plane.
Everything about that plane is impressive. Looking forward to seeing the maiden flight. 😎
Thanks. I started putting it together tonight and that didn't disappoint either. Very well made model.
Great video, very interesting ! Thanks !
Glad you enjoyed it!
Back in stock! 😃 Woohoo!
Good catch. I wonder if those were cancellations or something. Either way, there were only 2 orange/white in stock, so act fast!
Nice shop in background. I wish I had one like that
Thank you! :)
Cool work
Thanks!
Nice thinking about getting something in the 60” size ….need to finish some of my other projects first and clear out some of my older planes lol
I think 60-70" planes are an awesome sweetspot between portability, visibility, and flyability in less than calm conditions. Value is there too. Moderate shipping/electronics costs.
Hi John,
She does look nice. Hhope the maiden goes without incident. Stay safe.
Thanks Don!
Good job john --
Thank you.
Very very nice it will fly Flawless
Glad you didn't say unicorns.
@@RCVideoReviews That was supposed to be flawless.🫣😁
HAHAH! I thought that was a "Dave-ism" for beautiful.
NIIIIICE 👌🏻
Agreed!
I like T-Motors. Good honest motors at a decent price. Since You like Sunny Sky. I’m pretty sure you’re going to like T-Motors also.
Looking forward to seeing how it performs on a bigger model. I know this PnP setup was vetted rigorously and I have quite a bit of faith in the testers, so I do have high expectations.
I just got the PNP 67" Laser 260 with QUICK connect/disconnect CONNECTORS in the fuselage and wing - What a JOY not to have to DECIDE AND INSTALL all the components - it is already done by the factory in the AEROBATIC BALSA plane - YAHOO!!!! - Now we just have to look forward to PNP or RxR LARGER than 67" AEROBATIC BALSA planes AND designing the HORIZONTAL and VERTICAL tail feathers to be SCREW ON like some manufactures have done with their FOAM planes 😂👏👍
I just flew the 67" Laser this weekend and it's such a spectacularly good plane. Great choice. Did you get Red or Yellow?
Good times we're living in with regard to the hobby. There are some amazing products out there these days.
You're right that airplane is perfectly built!! Very impressive aircraft. I still gotta say, MUSCLE BIPE, MUSCLE BIPE......
Edit: :)
I've been avoiding bipes due to space and time. I have eyeballed that plane a half dozen times though. The 58" is in stock too.
That’s an awesome bird. I’m in the process of building a hobbico extra 300s The copyright on the instruction manual says it’s a 96 model. Interesting to see how others make thiers.
Have fun with your build! Share pics on discord....we have a #build-log channel. Just sayin'
@@RCVideoReviews im not on discord but it’s on my CZcams a little
Love EF. Any reason they don't use their xpower motors in these? I'm not familiar with T motor
I'm not sure why they went with t-motor over xpwr, but t-motor has a good reputation out there.
how is the rudder wire secured do you glue it in ?
Hi there, I was wondering does this have a motor box inside the cowl just for electric setup? I don't like it when manufacturers make a secondary motor box bolted onto another originally setup for Gas engines in this size model?
It looks like electric only to me. Here's the ARF assembly manual and they don't show an add-on box: extremeflightrc.com/assets/images/67%20extra260%20arf%20build%20guide.pdf
First of all, I enjoy your reviews and details. I was out of the hobby for about 10 years and recently got back in. Electric is still relatively new to me, so I've been flying the eflite foamies, but now I want to step my game back up. In your experience, which is better, extreme flight or skywing? In the 60 to 67 area, which is your favorite flyer? I've been eyeing the skywing yak 54 60", but you have flown several beautiful aircraft in that area, lol. Lastly, I noticed you fly with radiomaster. I'm currently with spektrum, but I'm looking for other options. I'm looking at the TX16S and didn't know if it would be worth the change. I'd appreciate the info you can give. Thanks for the content, and keep it extreme.
You really should get on discord (link is in description of every video I post). Short answers:
EF and SW are equitable substitutes. Most notable differences are the graphics.
I believe Spektrum is so wildly overpriced. I wouldn't use their gear. EdgeTX, ELRS, and Radiomaster for me.
Done and thanks for the invite...

Someday I hope to be a good enough pilot to invest $1200. While I have lots of stuff for smaller planes in my stash, I have little for this plane so the PNP version would be for me.
The 67" Laser 260 and 67" Edge 540 are only $1049 so you can invest in a LARGER BALSA plane a little sooner...😉😊 Also, BTW if you can find a PNP FMS Extra 330S 78.7" FOAM plane like I got when it came out - paid $529 with discounts - and before it got discontinued, you will LOVE it
It took me a lot of years before I would consider spending this much on a plane, but after I took the plunge, I have a hard time going back. Also keep in mind, there's nothing budget about the hardware. It's all top shelf gear.
neat. it's big. how much weight can it carry?
They recommend a 6s5k. On my 67" Laser I use Liperiors.
Great video, was considering this since its release. A couple of (tangential) points:
1. I realize you are trying to turn this in to a full-time gig and/or want to start getting a lot of freebies. Can't fault a man for his grift. However, you haven't disclosed in many review videos whether you purchased the plane without any interaction or 'consideration' from the manufacturer. It was implied in your 'FMS series', but it's not always clear. Please do so (it needn't be vocal - it can simply be boilerplate for that video).
2. If your goal is to start getting freebies and payouts from companies, be aware that real RC guys are going to turn away quickly (like they have with RCSaylors, BrianPhillips, HobbyView, DroneCamps, and literally 100s of others); no hobbyists take those channels seriously as they will never say anything untoward about the product being 'reviewed'. In a sense, you'll become simply another ad-conduit/ad-copy/mouthpiece for HH/FMS/Multiplex/FlexInnovations/whatever. --> I'd hate to see that happen to this channel.
I 100% disclose sponsored products. No disclosure = no sponsor. Suggest you keep watching and learn more about the channel czcams.com/users/live6iOVhe1HOB0?feature=share
Regarding the "consumer" channels, I'll just keep my opinion to myself on those...
Every sponsored product says it in the video, in the YT tag which places a "sponsored" overlay in the video, and in the description.
I’m gonna guess this is not a beginner plane.
definitely not. highly capable 3d plane but with turned down throws it would be docile to fly basic patterns on
Yeah, that's the thing. With the rates turned down they're excellent sport planes. Wings are symmetrical and lack dihedral, so if the corresponding flight characteristics are ok with you, then you do not need to be an expert to fly these.
They have light wing loading, excellent ground handling, superb power to weight, and an astoundingly neutral balance in flight.
Out of stock..
Yeah, these were definitely going to go fast. They still have ARFs, and you can add the T-Motor/Theta setup...
No Pilot
I think they sell them. I think the only time I went out of my way to add one was on a Tower Hobbies Ryan STA though.
