Flying the Extra 330 + Walkaround

Take a walkaround tour of the Extra 330 LT and come fly with me. This +/- 10G beast can fly 200kts just a few thousand feet off the ground and do much more than make your head spin. Truth be told, little known fact - it actually identifies as an F-35. Make sure and subscribe to the channel to get video updates!

I flew an Extra 300 in Honolulu. Amazing aircraft. I was delighted with the light stick pressures similar to a Pitts Special. Of course, it has an incredible roll rate. The front seat is as blind as can be though. You see nothing but Wing when you look down unless you're knife edge or inverted. Easy to land and take off although fast on approach.

Great. As an LT driver myself - spot on! Nothing better. With enough respect, only your imagination is bigger than what the LT can do.

Thanks Bryan! I have quite the newfound respect for folks like you. Come to find out, this video stuff takes a disproportionate amount of time to complete. I think I spent more than 12 minutes making this 12 minute video. Now that I finished it, I actually have plans on talking to my family today. Hope they remember me.

It’s a great dream. And they hold their value incredibly well, so it’s stable from an asset point of view. Nothing flies like an Extra.

@@mattmurph good to hear! Maybe one day...if they made a model with bigger weels and flaperons for some light bushflying (only stuff like landing on beaches etc) and a retractable undercarriage I would completely burn the 2ct remaining on my bank account on that. I know, a slightly cursed idea of a plane, but yeah :D Loved that video! There are far to few good videos about cool planes out there, compared to the mass of e.g. car videos.

It's SUCH a cool plane. I flew in one of these at Sky Combat Ace out of Henderson Airport in Nevada. We temporarily did 10 g. If I was a little bit richer I would buy one.

@mattmurph Жыл бұрын

I've never done 10G.... during training I started to grey out at a sustained 6... It's amazing what the airframe can handle.

@gleesmj Жыл бұрын

awesome insight. i love these planes but I doubt I'll ever own one. do you typically use full power on take off? i imagine it must be tough to man handle 300hp on such a light frame

@mattmurph Жыл бұрын

Eventually yes. You roll into half power at the start, make sure you are stabilized and on centerline, then smoothly roll in full power. Tail will come up almost immediately, then just hold a slight pitch up attitude and you'll lift off by about a 1000' of ground roll.

Nice video. 👍🏼😎 Do you know why (as far as I know) the Extra 330 has won most of the aerobatics championships and no Zivko Edge 540? Is it because the Edge is an experimental, and not allowed to compete? How does the Edge 540 compare to the Extra 330 in aerobatics? The Edge should have a higher roll rate and better climb performance, at the Red Bull Air Race the Edge has dominated. 🤔

@baselhammond1520 6 ай бұрын

What is the best climb rate? heard the angle is not as steep as the other variants

@mattmurph 6 ай бұрын

Around 90kias you can easily see 4000fpm. It's like riding a rocket.

How do the Aspens hold up to acro? Now do the Maul!

@mattmurph 3 жыл бұрын

Hey Will! The aspens will tumble a bit after a fast roll. The attitude and moving map will get turned around a bit. However, they come back to their senses typically in less than 10 seconds. For me, not much of an issue since going inverted in IMC is not going to happen, or really.. I would never fly that plane into IMC.

@tednischan8283 Жыл бұрын

Can the LT do inverted loops?

@mattmurph Жыл бұрын

Rated to +/- 10 Gs... so it can... the question is can the pilot handle it?

@tednischan8283 Жыл бұрын

Yea, I bet haha. I guess I was just curious how much the aerobatics are affected on the LT compared to the SC since it has flat bottom wings and curved wing tips?
