Default RE: 28% Edge VIDEO

Your my hero . You can tell from your first vid to this one that your confort level and skill is more and more. I'm finally to the point also that I can and am confortable torque rolling my edge like a top only a couple feet off the ground . Took a while (like 300 flights), but I finally think I have it dialed in. Also put in on a major diet which REALLY turned it into a new plane. Up until a week ago it weighed a whopping 21 lbs/ (lots of dead weight-1 1/2 lbs in the tail for balast, heavy gear now drilled out, heavy spinner now lightened, smoke-no more, 2 reciever batts-now one, extra wood for reciever try-gone, all stock wood for servo trays ect. now gone, servo in tail for balast. Now.it weghs 17lbs 10oz. with a full 16 oz tank. Flys completely better....way more nimble and pops out of a hover where before it felt very heavy hovering, sluggish, and just mushed up and out (Brison 3.2). I'm loving this plane even more so now . With all carbon I will be in the 16"s with fuel and ready to fly....can't wait .
