Another strong attribute of the EXP is its knife edge capability. The forward
canopy placement gives the aircraft very stable KE performance and when
coupled with the SFGs the rudder authority is amazing. Huge round KE loops
with backside recovery just above idle are the norm for the EXP. Super slow
high alpha KE passes are no problem.
The included SFGs can also act as "training wheels" when learning the
harrier maneuver. They can help to stabilize the aircraft in high alpha flight
and reduce pilot workload which certainly helps when you are learning a new
maneuver.
Another neat set-up to try is to mix the ailerons to act as spoilerons which
move in conjunction with your elevator. This mix commands both ailerons to
raise as the elevator raises. I typically use this mix at 100% and put it on a
switch so I can turn it on when needed and inhibit it when not needed. Some
folks feel this type of mix is somehow taboo. To them I say "open your
mind"! Anything that enhances flight characteristics or allows me to perform
maneuvers that are otherwise not possible I am totally game to try! This mix
allows the most straight down dropping elevators you will ever encounter,
insane walls that gain no altitude where the tail of the aircraft is basically
thrown under the fuselage and the tightest KE spins I've ever seen. This mix
is also another good training tool for learning the harrier maneuver and by
experimenting with the amount of spoileron to elevator mix you can actually
determine the angle of attack that the EXP will harrier in. The best advice I
can offer is to experiment, burn through lots of battery packs and above all
have fun! You are in possession of a completely capable airframe whose
flying abilities are only limited by your imagination. We have had a blast
during the development and testing stages of this aircraft and I sincerely hope
the Extra 300EXP provides you with as much joy and excitement as it has for
me. See ya at the flying field!
