This is a Glen's Models Extra 330S.
The basic airframe was built by my good friend 'Christophe'
and it fly's beautifully. Originally I was going to power
it with a YS63 4 stroke engine. then I was persuaded to electrify
it. It now has a Model Motors Axi 4130/16 in it

These batteries could easily give me 15 minutes of full
on aerobatic flying.
I estimate it to have nearly a 2:1 power to weight ratio
with this Extra.
It is fantastic to fly, with no vices and will knife edge
all day long.
It is also very easy and predicable to land.
I love this plane!
