We just want you to get that Edge done and get to flying soon. More maiden flight reports and another happy customer .
I will admit again,,,, that I do tend to keep my VF Edge in the hanger a bit more than I would like. But I too would hate to lose it forever. Now that I really know what this plane is built for and have gone the extra mile reducing weight and changing to a more RPM type engine I'm very happy with mine.
And it is built like a tank. I doubt seriously if a small landing mistake will even matter now that you got those Dubro nylon landing gear.
Unless you land upside down.

EDIT: Don't forget to reinforce the landing gear block at least with some 1/4" ply.
