Extra 300 & Super Stearman RC planes

The Extra lands brutally due to the lack of battery power after a too long flight.
But I hope that you'll notice the beautifull kiss landing from the Super Stearman.

That must be some lightweight model Stearman!

This isn't some sort of video trick is it? The

speed looks scale! Please tell us about this model.(Details of scale, power, weight, who's kit or plans or scratch-built? Let your fans know.)

The Extra is home made based on the plans from Carl Golberg (but modified to be lighter).

The Super Stearman is an ARF model from Kyosho super stearman 40. (wingspan 55"; weight: 5 lbs; motor: Cyclon 60; Battery: 5s,3000 mA)

lol i like your discription of it

[emidgley]

Don't you hate it when your planes see something shiney on the runway and decide to try to find it by sniffing the ground?!?! Every once-in-a-while, that happens to me... LOL

I love the Stearman, and have two right now. A Kyosho 40 size i've been flyin for 6 years, it has a Saito 72 on it, and I also have a Great Planes 1/4 scale version with an SV26 gas engine. I don't think that any plane ever made can hold a candle to the Super Stearmans looks and handling characteristics. I just love em... Dennis

cool planes

The flight duration is from 10 to 12 minutes.

Thanks Vrombau for getting back to us. I've never yet gone for an ARF. I'm building a little

7/8":1' scale (1/14) Stearman with a GWS BLM-001

for 3s 830 mAH. I redrew the Herr Engineering kit plan (rubber model,) for 4-channel. I'm making an even smaller 3-channel Breguet 14 (16"!) Could you tell us your average flight duration with the Cyclon 60 and 5s 3000? I'm

tempted!

Well im not going for the 5lb version, i normally fly 6oz 3D planes or 2Lbs slopers, so im thinking of a 30inch 12oz 3s740 bipe. It wont look as nice as yours but will do fine for me ;-)

[vrombau]

Yes this plane is actually my favorite one. Really beautifull in flight (and even more with the whell pants but I don't use them on grass landing tracks) and really nice flying and aerobatics capability.
