Default 28% Edge

I went out with the Edge today and had a blast. My landings are coming around, something that was giving me problems with this plane. It's my first bigger airplane and it really likes to float. My DA 50 is starting to break in nicely now, it's to the point that it starts on the first - third flip unlike before. Hovering is different than the smaller planes I found out, I realize you have to hit the throttle for some prop blast which is something I'm not used to with smaller planes. Still no expert but I see what needs to happen to do it so thats a start. Got a good flat spin and waterfalls out of it. My favorite today was the harrier. I held it like I never had before and man I was happy with myself. It does have some wing rock but nothing you can't deal with. I will activate my airbrake, flaps I think, and try it like that and see if it helps with the wing rock. Knife edges have been a bit difficult becouse not only does the plane couple but it rolls too. I'm working on mixing it out but having a little bit of a tough time. Has anyone else noticed this in knife edge flight? All and all I have to say that I really like the plane and with my graphics kit from Bad Brad Graphics it looks awsome. I had several compliments on it today. The airplane looks great anyway but these really brought it to life. For anyone reading this who might be thinking about buying this Edge from Wild Hare all I can say is do it. Tom has a great price for a great plane. The picture on their web site does this plane no justice at all. It looks so much better in person that you would have to see it to believe it. Great job to Wild Hare again! Their staff is wonderful to deal with too. My buddy bought a new 33% Edge from Tom at Wild Hare and it looks as sharp as you would expect it should. Another winner I think. Keep it up guys and thanks for the awsome planes we fly.
