The comp arf 330 2.6 is a great plane. I have not heard of any one that does not love the way it flies. If you look further on this forum you will find tons of information on the 2.6.

agree'd, you wont hear bad about the Composite-ARFs, they look great, and fly better.

I love mine man, and I only have 8 flights on it so far. It is so confidence inspiring in all aspects, makes all maneuvers much easier than with other planes and basically lands itself. I can not say a bad thing about this plane. Mine is a real lightweight at 21.3 lbs, just had to get that in there he he.

I love mine at 28lbs. There is no way this plane comes in ligter than 24 pounds I dont care what anybody says. I have seed one with a ZDZ80 and it still was 24 lbs.

Go ahead pull the trigger!
Once you've had composite - you'll never go back

I have been flying a 2.6 for over a year now and just got a 2.3 in the air last weekend. My Rep is trying to sell me a 3.0 as we speak but the 3.1 is tempting and then there always is the Yak. Too many decisions

I have 5 flights on mine, and love it! The next ones in my garage sure will be from comp.arf! About the weight; sure it can come down towards the early 20's if you use li po's, no boxes, the BME 110, only 2 aileron servos etc, but It really flys great at 27 lb with all the hw onboard.

How have the durability issues been, any of you guys had any cracks or anything, and how long have you been flying each plane....

Well I have almost 280 flights on mine, the only thing I did to mine "and its totaly my fault" is bash the rudder. But it was real easy to fix...


Here is an old vid John put together, Full throttle walls, blenders, harrior touch and go....
