Default Edge 540 elevator/harrier

Hi Bob,
The only thing my 36% or 40%Edge did when I tried reflex, was make the plane drop into an elevator. It takes more power to hold the same altitude with reflex. it really didn't stabilize or level the wings. I don't even use it anymore. Not enough for me to notice anyway. I'm sure that will be different from plane-to-plane. For months I thought I was doing something wrong in the Harrier because I would jam in 45 degrees of up and expect the wings to lock in and stay level...not so. Get used to keeping the wings level with aileron. The wing drop is s- l- o- w on the Edge, so you'll have plenty of time to react. That is the main reason the Edge is not "super" in IMAC...because it doesn't readily drop a wing in a spin. But, like any plane with wings, it will eventually tip to one side or the other. Just correct with aileron. Practice, Practice.
