Thanks DKjens. The Aeroworks Extra looks like it would be an excellent flyer. I also like the fact that it's from a company that has a good name. Yet I am very intrigued by the Ohio Models Edge. I haven't owned an Edge (funfly or otherwise) and would like to give it a try.

I think Ohio Models used to be Ohio RC. If so, they seemed to be pretty good except that they went under, changed their name, or whatever.

I looked up the BGX-1. It is rated at 46 ounces without muffler and 4.1 hp. You said yours was 4 lbs. The muffler must weigh in pretty strong or maybe OS is a little prejudice with their weight. Whatever the case, the RCS 180 seems close - 3.25lbs (including ignition) so plus muffler and ignition batter it's probably a little over 4lbs with 4.0 hp. Did you have more than enough of power with the lighter BGX and slighter higher hp?

Thanks for the insight DKjens.
