RE: new seagull 540 3d?
I know we are talking about Edges and Extras here.... but,,, this bird really flys like a combo of the two. It has the slow stable characteristics of the Edge (yes, with the coupling in KE ) and the point and shoot abillity of the Extra.
Running the Saito 150 but could go bigger for better 3/D. The firewall and cowling area gives you room to hang most anything on the business end. Servos are Futaba S3305 High-Torque Standard w/Metal Gears all the way around. Except throttle. Plenty of speed and torque with a 6.0vt battery.
Reason I got it ?? It's differant. Looks kinda like a cross between the Edge, Laser and Extra. Comes with very decent hardware. Loose the landing gear and go with something lighter. Replace the 4-40 metal tail support rods with carbon . Before going carbon gear and tail rods, etc, etc... my superstar full of fuel came in at 11lbs even.
MIKE !! Keep that info coming on your new Edge ok ?
