EF - 100" Slick 580 EXP V3 - Red/White Competition Scheme

Introducing the Extreme Flight Slick 580 V3 — Celebrating 10 Years of Innovation

10 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 chapter in that legacy: the all-new Slick 580 V3.

More than an update, the V3 is a celebration of a decade of innovation, refinement, and teamwork.

This aircraft is the result of a true Team Extreme effort. Chris Hinson and Ben Fisher led the engineering evolution — refining structure, aerodynamics, and assembly to bring the Slick fully into the modern Extreme Flight era, while preserving the unmistakable flight character that made the original legendary.

A special nod to Arron Bates, whose groundbreaking original scheme defined the Slick’s identity and set a new standard 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 blend 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 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.

Thank you to everyone who helped shape the Slick 580 over the past decade.

The legend continues.
