Chris, were you and the Edge shown above at an IMAC meet in the Poconos last summer?

Chris 540 02-18-2002 07:34 PM

No, not me. A man in my club bought that plane from Ed Alt last summer. Not sure when the meet was, but I am sure whoever owned it at the time was there! Sure is a pretty covering job, eh?

A prop...a VERY expensive one I might add!! The big carbon ones are over $250... :stupid:

Hmmm.

In the full scale world a prop with a curl on the end is a "Q" tipped prop.

finnz,

How much does your plane weigh? And what size smoke tank?

I'm thinking about installing a smoke system in my edge but don't want to gain too much weight.

mikerc 02-25-2002 11:28 PM

Well I had a 10 oz. in it at first and then I put a 16 oz. I got about 6 min. of smoke. I didn't make any attempt to lighten the plane just beefed the #$%& out of it. It came in a 17lbs. It flew fine though. Landed hot. I am now going to install a BME 50 and reconstruct with CF. I want it down to 14lbs max. Awesome plane with smoke. I have more pics if interested.

Yowsers! :D

6 min. of smoke with the 10 oz. or 16 oz.?

Also, how do you plan to reconstruct with the CF?

mikerc 02-26-2002 12:22 AM

Sorry, 6 min. with 16oz. and about 4 with 10oz. I am planning on replacing the firewall and radio tray with lamintated light ply with CF. I am still engineering it. I will take pics as I go. I will probably start in the next day or so. I don't want another 17lb plane. It is hard to make them light. There is nothing to them to begin with.

Telling it like it is... I like that. Some of the fellas from the field will tell me about their 10-lbs 1/4 scale planes. We weigh them at the house and never one under 12-lbs so far... and they're running glow with no smoke.

I say yank the smoke off and get that sucker down to 13-lbs. It really starts flying good at that weight. :-)

I wish the weather would warm up so I could find out :(

The smoke is awesome though. I was trying to decide between gyros or smoke and went with smoke and decided I don't need training wheels just learned how to hover. I will post my wieght with my fish scale on the Edge when I start. I have a ton of CF that I picked up from a swap meet. I want to start to utilize the stuff.

Oh. 17lbs was with full tanks. 24oz. gas and 16 oz. of diesel fuel for smoke. Not that I am making excuses or anything. It was really 8 lbs empty. Haha Just kidding.
