Man, that looks great. Is that the 40 size? If you have other pics, it would be appreciated.

I can't go to their site. I'm running compuserve which appears to have it's own browser - anyway it doesn't like that site. Locks up everytime I go to it.

I'm strongly considering the 80" 540P GS.

Jeff, I was walking the edge to me belly first for the pic so I was jockeying with the ail to keep it positioned properly.

OMP Giant Edge is rock solid in a hover.
I like the way the Moki 2.10 handles the plane. It will putt around the sky and do anything you throw at it to recover with ease.
I almost lost it this past weekend due to a Y harness/amp failure.
When it went bad my aileron servos went to full deflection! A little scary but I was able to land it with minor damage to 1 servo and some torn covering from the wing tip that got slammed into the ground.

Default OHM 540 looks great

JP, your 540 looks great. I'd like to see more of your covering scheme. I'm so excited about this plane, I'm selling my G2 to support OHM 540 GS project. I've got a Brison 3.2 I'm going to try to put in it. It has 5hp like the Moki 2.1, but weighs about 8oz more (overall weight).

I'm real interested in what your weight turned out to be. Have you had a chance to weigh it yet?

I haven't weighed it yet. I'll get back to the post with a weight later on. It flies like a feather & Floats like a bee.
The hover is rock solid.
I have 3 thin washers under the front 2 blots of the motor mount.

Default hover

If you can't make this plane hover then you need to give it up!
It's that easy, really. I'm not a professional 3D kind of guy but I do like the profiles and was looking for a bigger one when this OMP came along.

Jess, sorry I did not get to meet you this past Saturday. I was just kidding you in the above post about the left aileron. Maybe next time we can meet, Gator told me you wear purple clothes, I wear brown, and I think that is enough for you to know what I am talking about. Jeff Williams.

Wayne, Gator does not work for Fedex, he is ARTCC in MEM now you know that code. V1VRV2 wears purple w/stripes if I got my story straight, but brown is such a lovely color. Jeff W.

If it were up to me I would sell that 3.2 and buy a used or new Moki 2.10 or the Moki 180. It's a perfect combination.
I put a K&B 4 stroke plug in mine last night and it came alive. Now maybe the plug in it was getting worn a bit because the engine is still in the break in transition, but there was a considerable difference.
8 ounces is allot of weight difference!
