Congratulations on your purchase of the Extreme Flight RC 120cc Slick 580
EXP! Designed by Extreme Flight and developed by Jase Dussia, the Slick
580 was conceived as a no holds barred, no excuses all out Freestyle
competition machine. The first prototypes were sent directly to the Dussia's
in Michigan in the Summer of 2016. The aircraft were assembled, setup and
dialed in. A few short weeks later Jase won the 2016 Clover Creek
Invitational Freestyle competition with his new Slick! After the contest
further testing was conducted and minor tweaks were made to the airframe to
improve strength while reducing weight. Extreme Flight returned to China in
November 2016 to oversee the implementation of the final changes and
tweaks. Now the Slicks are here, and ready to usher in a new era in 120cc
Aerobatic performance!
The new Slick 580 is a masterpiece of integrated carbon and composite
reinforced balsa airframe design. Strong, rigid and lightweight with a state of
the art aerodynamic package, the Slick excels at XA, 3D and precision
aerobatics and is probably the fastest rolling giant scale aerobatic plane in
existence. Extreme Flight and Jase evaluated various airfoils, multiple wing
planform details, several rudder designs, and more to maximize all these
characteristics. Highly stylized with flowing lines and curves reminiscent of a
composite airframe, the Slick 580 is simply gorgeous. Currently available in 2
Arron Bates designed ultra modern Ultracote color schemes, the Slick will
also be available in Jase's printed competition scheme very soon.
The Slick ships with a complete hardware package that is competition proven
and exactly what Jase uses in his models. It also includes a set of engine
baffles that can be trimmed to accommodate most makes of 100-120cc
engines. Rig out your model just like Jase's with our line of Xcessories
including Flowmaster tanks, EF fuel dots, 20 AWG twisted servo extensions,
high quality aluminum servo arms, MKS servos and DA engines.
If you are looking for the pinnacle of competition level ARF aircraft, here it
is!
