Default RE: Vectorflight Edge 540 build

Well, my Edge got 3 more flights on it today. All I have to say about this airplane is WOOOOOOOOOW. I really cannot describe how much I love this plane. I know some people have had some problems with Evo engines but good lord does that engine power this plane. Every single time I pulled into a vertical climb and it kept accelerating up I almost forgot to fly it and just wanted to watch. It certainly does everything exactly how you tell it to do it but is really the most stable model I've flown so far. We had some pretty good wind today when I first got to the field and when I took the Edge up, the wind was hardly noticeable.

It doesn't land bad at all to me and so far the stock gear/wheels are just fine. I kept waiting to find a bad habit of some sort but so far, I haven't yet. It is pitch sensitive but expo and a being really gentle with elevator inputs things are great.

If I had finished this one earlier and flown it, I'd have another one on order right now as a backup - hope VF comes back!
