If you let the angle get too high, this plane could fall over on its back. There is enough rudder authority to perform stall turns, but more rudder is needed to get the model to spin. Overall, the Xtra Easy is a stable flying model, just as a trainer should be. In an effort to make the Xtra Easy more appealing and more versatile as the pilot s skill grows, Hangar 9 has come out with three bolt-on accessories for its trainer. The camera mount, glider launch and drop box each add an extra dimension of fun to the Xtra Easy.
Installation is fairly easy, but requires a bit more work than assembling the plane itself.
The camera mount is bolted right up to two blind nuts in the bottom of the fuse. Even missing one cross-brace, the launch was sturdy enough to hold a glider securely proof that with a little refinement, the launch should work well. The drop box was my favorite accessory for the Xtra Easy. The box is rugged and is big enough for a variety of payloads. The three-piece aluminum camera mount comes mostly assembled and is mounted on two of the installed blind nuts in the bottom of the fuselage.
