Introducing the Extreme Flight Slick 580 V3 — Celebrating 10 Years of Innovation
Ten years ago, the original Extreme Flight Slick 580 changed the game — redefining what pilots could expect from a giant-scale ARF.
Today, we’re proud to unveil the next evolution of that legacy: the all-new Slick 580 V3.
More than just an update, the V3 is a celebration of a decade of innovation, refinement, and collaboration.
This aircraft is the result of a true Team Extreme effort. Chris Hinson and Ben Fisher led the engineering evolution — refining the structure, aerodynamics, and assembly process to bring the Slick fully into the modern Extreme Flight era, while carefully preserving the unmistakable flight character that made the original legendary.
A special nod goes to Arron Bates, whose groundbreaking original scheme defined the Slick’s identity and set a new benchmark for visual presence. With printed covering no longer in use, Ben Fisher reimagined that iconic look using traditional covering techniques — honoring the original while delivering a fresh, modern interpretation worthy of the V3.
The result is a perfect fusion of heritage and innovation:lightweight composite-reinforced construction, refined aerodynamics, and Extreme Flight’s latest assembly technologies — all wrapped in a scheme that pays tribute to where it began while looking firmly toward the future.
From XA and hardcore 3D to precision aerobatics, the Slick 580 V3 delivers the locked-in feel, blistering roll rate, and confidence-inspiring performance pilots expect — now elevated by 10 years of lessons learned.
At Aerobertics, we’re proud to see this legend reborn — a model that perfectly reflects our passion for high-performance aerobatic aircraft and the pilots who fly them.
Thank you to everyone who helped shape the Slick 580 over the past decade.The legend continues.
