I finally got my winter project done OMP Hybrid with a DL 50. I will maiden it as soon as the wind quits blowing.

The wind slowed down enough so I could put the maiden flight on my Hybrid. I had high expectations for this plane after reading all the other posts about the Hybrid. Well.......it exceeded what I was hopeing it would do. The CG was a little tail heavy so I moved the batterys all the way to the front. CG was spot on. It flat spins great and harriers with very little rocking. It came in at 17 lb. with a DL 50 and it still lands slow.

Holy crap man!! The max spec rpm is 9000. Mine spun a 22x8 at about 7200 on a good day. 12000 is insane for a 22" prop on a 50cc engine.

I wanted to let you know I have done my maiden with my Hybrid this weekend. She is flying great on a DA50. As I am not such an experienced 3D flyer it was great to get help from my teacher at the club, Walter, who is also flying a Hybrid Edge since a few years now.
It would not surprise me if you could count the number of Hybrid owners in Belgium (a tiny country in Europe) on one hand.
I have been trying to post some pics but seem to have some problems being an Apple user. Will try again as soon as I have some time.

So I am very keen to hone my flying skills with this beautiful bird. Just to let Mike know we are becoming real OMP adepts at our club in Belgium!

Thanks for designing these fantastic planes

Paul

Well, add one more whenever I am in town. As an international airline pilot I am in Brussels quite a bit. In fact, I was hanging out at Delirium and had mussels on the Platz last week. Glad to hear there are other Hybrid fliers over there. What is the name and/or website of your club? Next time I'm there I might want to come by.

The website is in Dutch but you can see a few pics. You are always welcome when you have a few hours to kill on a weekend.

I will try to upload some pics of my Hybrid
