Our second 2m Extra 260 has now been completed and test flown. The balsa & glass  composite fuselage has allowed us to complete the model under 5Kg. The engine is an OS160FX. Its in "Sport Flyer" mode at the moment .... eg the std muffler is fitted. Plenty of power for the hovering and 3D manouvers, plus the muffler fits in the cowl. All up weight of the completed model is 4.8 Kg....so its F3A / Artistic Aerobatics legal !
