Default VectorFlight EDGE video...

The video is not good quality... I need to invest in a digital video camcorder... but it will give you an idea of the flight habits of the model.... It's a great flyer, flies like its on rails... this was just my 3rd flight with it... so I didn't really ring it out... Saito 91 for power, battery pack under the tank, balance was perfect...

I was tinkering with Video Edit Magic.... It's a little cheesy... but nice Landing!

thanks for sharing the videos. VF makes some of the better ARF's out there. Your seems to fly nicely with a 91, do you feel its enough power? I had the 58" Extra with a 91 and it was just enough for me

It's good power, but not unlimited... I like to fly my .60 size aerobats somewhat scale.... For the Imac Sportsman, and Basic... the 91 is perfect.... Saito 100 would be better.... I think a 120 would make the EDGE tougher to hold good scale lines... I'm under 8 pounds... 7.6 ... I weighed each wing panel, and the fuse seperatly on digital scales...

Very nice! Thanks for the videos. The tumbles in the last ones were excellent.

Which .91 are you using? I have a Magnum .91 2 stroke and have lots of engine problems on 10% fuel stock head gasket.

I have a .91 Mag 4s in my 58 inch Extra. It is one sweet running engine... It is tuned to turn a 14x6 MA prop at 9200 rpm.. It gives me adequite but not unlimited verticle... I orderd a 14x4 APC to try on it and see if I can get more out of it.. I have the 66 inch Extra backordered and am thinking of a 120 for it.. Hopefully I will get a little more verticle out of the 120

Not really, I have never gotten into that stuff.
