Default H9 Edge / BME 44

I have that combo. I've flown it about five times now. I installed two Hitech 605 BB servos in the rear for the elevator. The rudder is on pull-pull. I had to add two ounces of weight in the tail to get it right on, meaning my preference, which is barely a touch of down when inverted. The plane came out at 13.75 lbs. I'm told that is heavy for this brand of Edge. It doesn't fly like a rock by any means. Of course, it has unlimited vertical. I haven't tried hovering, only the IMAC moves. It does them fine and lands great, not like a heavy bird. I wish I had more to tell you but that's all I can say at this time. I'll know more in a few weeks.
