Hello,

Thanks guys. The field in St. Pete is too small for the 42% Edge to get in and out of. We brought it for display. We mainly flew our 81" Velox ARF. With us and our other sponsors this project has come right together. We can't thank them enough. Please come by and see us at the Tucson Shootout.

Thanks

John

Default Tucson Shootout Plane

Awesome!! I've got to win that thing somehow. I NEED to be in a big plane next year. I'm already flying against Super Extra's and 38% Colombo Anderson's in the Sportsman class. I've got to get bigger for the Intermediate class next year. Thanks for making it a dream for us 2.6m pilots in the Shootout!!

See you there.
