    Beautiful Extra 330 and it fly's beautifully with the 200cc. Patty's 08 scheme looks great on that Lx. Definitely a corvette in the sky 💪👌

      Now if I could only fly it like she did and does....I would be one happy camper.....! The plane now sports a full scale cockpit and a full body likness of Patty...she is a great lady and her book is an interesting read. We are currently changing the CG to see if we can temper the tipstall.. Thanks for your comment.

    I really like this flying machine and the engine - and thinking of purchasing an Extra-shirt😀
    Last year I visited the Extra-facilites here in Germany, it is only 1 hour from my home.

    Special thanks to Junior Lopez for his incredible talents in bringing "The Blackbird" to Life, and to Callie, of Callie Graphics for the OUTSTANDING job done on the graphics. And to my Daughter Jocelyn for the outstanding camerawork.

    Maiden flight!! The "Blackbird" is home based at HCAM Austin, TX….A pair of KS95 headers and cans tames the 200, and the sound is SO SWEET!! Also, this is the 330LX that has ALL Servos in the fuselage at the CG. No servos in the wings or tail. VERY COOL!!

      @@joshbuck5877 well, not quite…there are no servos in the tail or wings. They are all in the fuselage over the CG just behind the tanks. An incredible design by CARF, and are double servos on all surfaces too.
