In both of these edge's that i have, there was a little bit of covering and wood as "extra" that was included. That might help.
Yes, I have it too. Just a small piece. If I will not able to repair covering nice I can always add a red or blue trim

Or maybe if you have a computer radio, you can even out the travel that way. That is what i plan to do.
I don't think there is a way of programming it. When you set neutral and end-point, there will be still difference in between these points. It's pure geometry. For small travel it may be not much difference, and with crappy servos you may not notice it between slope, but I dont want to take any chances.

When I was setting up my H9 Edge I found that tle elevator travel at regular flying is less than 30% of maximum travel (3D). If you setup elevator for maximum travel = 10 degrees you can get away with that. But having maximum travel 30 degree you need every bit of precision for regular flying or the plane will be "wild"[X(].

I have finished one for another flyer and started on mine last night. It goes together quickly.
It is amazing ARF. If you go by original design and hardware (not by instruction BTW, as this one is crappy indeed) it goes very easy. But it never happened yet, that I made a plane (KIT or ARF) without changing something For that ARF I would recommend to replace tail wheel bracket at least. You will not have to many landings on this sof alu-bar.

P.S. I have 3 spare sets of original decals for H9 Edge so I'm going to make PowerHobbies Edge identical like my H9. Just to confuse buddies at the field
