Default New OMP Edge

Here's my first profile!!!![8D] It's an OMP FF Edge 540. This is also my first covering job. I really wish the white stuff on the ground would go away.

Nice job! What's the bottom look like?

Don't let the white stuff stop ya. If the wind is calm it's a good day for flying. We were out today in 16deg. But with no wind and the sun shining, it was great! Don't forget to yell, "Hand Launch!" or you and your buddys stomp the snow flat for 20'. That's all you'll need.

I'll post a picture of the bottem tomorrow. I did go with the Y.S. I found one for a really good price and decided that I would use it. I also like the pressurized fuel system.

Righteous bird my Brother!

I like the scheme, but what I really dig is the subtle difference in the canopy. Many guys would just have cut out a 540 shape canopy, but yours works with your design. That really sets it off for me. I give two thumbs way up for design, execution, and consistency.

If your YS is a 63, you may not need 20 feet, more like 10, I think. With flapperons, you're up in 6.

You got "Pro Bro" on there somewhere? Fly the Flag, my friend!

Wow, that's a great look. And major contrast to the bottom, a good thing in my book!

Today was the first chance that I had to fly it. It has been really windy and cold lately, but today was beautiful. I didn't get to go fly it until close to dark, so I only got one short flight in. (I know that real PRO BROs can fly in the dark, but I have a hard time seeing my airplane) This thing is awesome! I can't wait to fly it some more! I am definitely hooked on these profiles. That Y.S. .63 is awesome! It was only on the third tank and it was running really well. I will definitely use them more in the future.

Ryan
