ORIGINAL: shakes268

Well, rain and wind today blocked the maiden of my Edge (didn't have it ready yesterday, procrastinated on the flying wires)

Any way - always next weekend. Here are the pics (had to cut the hole for the high speed needle twice because the first time I mounted the engine it was too far back)

Engine: Evolution 1.00NX, Pitts muffler and 14x6 prop

Servos:
Ailerons - Futaba 3151 Digital x 2
Elevator - Futaba 3152 Digital x 2 (did a 2 servo setup on the elevator)
Rudder - Hitec 5475HB Digital
Throttle - Futaba 3151 Digital (not necessary but it came with my radio months ago)

Tank: 16oz


Keep an eye on that throttle servo... usually it is only a potential problem on 4 strokes and gas engines, but digitals don't handle the engine vibration well...
I use all digitals... except on my throttles... I use analogs there (Hs-81's on all but the big engines)
