ON THE COVER: David Pinegar wrings out the new 60-90 size Aeroworks Extra 300 for Ben Gulizia’s camera. This 60-inch aerobat is perfect for electric, glow or small gas power systems, and as one of Aeroworks’ Quick Build series, it won’t take but a few hours to prep for your first flight. See page 58 for David’s full review of this nimble aerobat.
