RE: Vectorflight Edge 540 build
ckangaroo: Nice to see you found this thread. 3 pages of very good information. Ez2bgman really put together a nice little build/ review on the edge.
Rcjon: Well im using the 2 3/4 inch spinner with the 120 cut from tru-turn. For the prop adapter im using the 8x1.25 double jam nut kit #tt-0823-a also from tru-turn. I have my spinner sent out to a local metal shop getting a make over. Its some new plating process that wont cause the aluminum to oxidize and gives it a tougher shine that will hold up with my electric starter. I totally understand you not trying to polish the landing gear. It is really messy and take a long time.
Ez2bgman: sorry for the bad luck with the weather. Dont you hate it when the weather just hates working with you.. you get to the field and its all pretty.. unload the plane then it strikes!!!! Setting up your plane its all pretty. Start the motor and the wind picks up. I tell you mother nature hates RC planes.. haha
