Default Lanier Edge 540T or Hangar 9 Edge 540

After about 3 months of trimming we've been able to get ours to fly pretty well. Get it too slow and it will fall out of the sky. If you already have one it will fly well and you can make the best of it, if not, why bother. Youv'e read Skerlock's numerous posts, I'm sure, about the H9 Edge. He loved it. He now has the Dave Patrick and the H9 just sits...may never fly again. I had a H9 also and I thought it flew well also. It had a wing loading of 28.5 oz/sq'.
Skerlock's DP has a loading of 24 oz/sq'. Big difference in flight characeristics. It's about stopped before it stalls. My Lanier Cap has a loading of 23 oz/sq' and its like its filled with helium.
