The PAK's kit for $849.00 looks like a great deal.

We have one or two flying IMAC in the NW division, one in the Unlimited class with a DA-150. The owner has owned a number of IMAC planes including Aeroworks, Fiberclassics, etc, and he says that this is the best flying plane he has owned. It is definitely BIG too.

I think it comes out a couple pounds heavier. I haven't had the chance to fly one but they look like they fly very well.

I've flown one a number of times,and owned one for awhile but had to sell due to finances.Awesome flying airplanes is all I can say,at out field all the guys with the custom built cardens are all buying the radiowave extras cause they fly so much better,the 35% panzel is another unbelievable flying airplane.I've got a PAK kit on order of it.

Hi,

Thought I'd throw my 2 cents in.

The 40% extra has a wingspan of 125 inches. They have been weighing in between 38 and 40 pounds depending what you stuff in it. Wing area is almost 2800 sq.

I'd say per sq inch we have less wing loading than most Carden's out there.

Not sure but I think Dennis largest plane is about 118 inches. Carden makes a fine product but I'd put ours up against any of them.

Just my two cents
