RE: Goose's 50cc Aeroworks Edge 540 (orange) assembly thread...

No one did because I didn't tell anyone and I decided at the last minute :D 30 hours going hard at it from getting the boxes to first run-up. The CC company love me right now and I will figure out...

RE: Goose's 50cc Aeroworks Edge 540 (orange) assembly thread...

Ramble away sir, this is all very interesting stuff.

I too set mine up differently than all my previous planes and like you, I have been spoilt with the ProX profile. Reverse to your setup...

Good news...

Yeah, they really do fly so nice, straight and smooth with a little care. Too bad about the weather.

Still not sure what my next step is... I had plans for the next few years...

Cheers Dave...

Don't know the condition of the expensive bits yet as it's still sitting in the corner of my workshop, but I had better sift through it smartly if I want to fly again this season....

Well, this is probably the last thing you want to see, me either, but as this thread marked the birth and construction of my Edge, so shall it mark the death.

RE: Goose's 50cc Aeroworks Edge 540 (orange) assembly thread...

Hey Taimoor...

The leading edge of the ProX is not straight and might be throwing you off when balancing at the tips or the root.

Stick to the recommendations (balance at the tips) and get...

Hey David...

Those do look pretty cool. I might look at them when my cowl bolt holes are all flogged out.

Gidday Brian...

Great! Thanks... I have 19 flights on it so far and the trimming is pretty sweet.

I am being cautious with this as I want it to last and it cost a fair bit. I have been...

I'm reasonably sure the supplied stoppers are gas safe Taimoor...

If in doubt, test it for a day or two.

Well Gents...

This post pretty much marks the end of the thread as my maiden flight was successfully flown on Sunday May 6, 2012.

Great to hear Brian!

The DL is very light, the canister is 60% behind the C of G, the pilot is heavy(er than normal) and I have filled my cart on the Graphtech website with both wing tube and...

Maiden postponed by one week due to weather.

Final throws and programming completed along with a final balance (see pic).

That assembly weighs 100g. Without it the plane hung tail low......

Good luck David....

I just rescheduled my maiden from this weekend (wet & 8 deg C) to the next hoping for better weather.

RE: Goose's 50cc Aeroworks Edge 540 (orange) assembly thread...

Well put Brian...

I wouldn't trust the IBEC after that. Regardless of what you do, with gas powered planes, you really have to protect everything from vibration as best you can, it's brutal.

Hey Taimoor...


Should be fine. I have a Corsair with a wing loading of 40oz/sq foot that will probably fly once :D

Don't get too slow too close to the ground.

Have fun!

Hey Brian...

Thanks for the head's-up.

Yes, I used can from hell, but it stretches from the header to well behind the C of G.

I'm doing the throws and final checks this week for the...

Hey David...

It's nice, but too pricey for the level of detail it needs ;)

I'm saving for a Comp-ARF P-51... (until something else gets my attention! *lol*)
