Extra 300 Step by Step 1

I was lucky enough to get my hands on the Prototype of this plane for 3 mins last October and it left me begging for more stick time. So when Chris asked if I would do a full review on this plane I really didn't have to think twice.

Extreme Flight took the market by storm a few years ago with their 68" Yak and then things got pretty quiet for awhile until last year when their all new 88" Yak came out. The Yak flew great with a 50-60cc engine but was the size of many 33%.

This new Extra is no different, it's large, has huge control surfaces, and a ton of wing area making it an all around performer.

Let's get to it!
