I have had many profile 3d planes, but the omp edge 540p rocks!! It is easy to do all the 3-d stuff, makes my topcap fly like a rock. Tail touches were so easy. I flew mine for the first time monday and I loved it so much I came home and ordered another one. I handed a flying buddy the TX and he did a several tail touches and then dorked my new plane, but it didn't hurt it thank god. He likes it better than his cgb 330. I think I better go ahead and get a few of these ready to fly because I have found my second true love!!
Thanks,
Chris

I picked up two kits a couple of weeks ago at a swap meet. I want to learn to hover next season, I figured I better have a spare.
Darren Eaton and Jeff Heitman seem to like them alot, and they put on a hell of a show with em'.

What servos do you use and engine size and model? Did they ballance at the CG without adding weight? I am currently building 2 of these.

I use standard futaba servo's and a os 46fx with a mac's tuned pipe. You can balance the plane with the engine. I did not add any weight to balance.

I have one with a os46fx and a macs muffler. this thing rocks. tons of power and smooth. I think i got the harrier program set. I was doing harriers a foot off the ground yesterday. hehehe. still havnt got the balls to roll it though. wieghs 4 lbs on the money. If you want to see it click on the www on the bottom to go to my site. Pics setup info and details. have fun

what do you all think of one with an all up flying wieght of 2 1/2 lbs. i have it all figured out i think it should wieght that.

Mine weighs 3 lb 8 oz with Saito 72 and 2 oz tail weight. I also have the DuBro FG fun fly LG which aren't all that light either. I didn't drill any extra holes but I used all contest balsa. Transparent Monokote, HS225MG's, HS81 on throttle, 5 x 1000 mah NiMH. The engine is definitely too much for the plane at this weight as it accelerates vertical like a rocket! I could get away with a smaller engine, get rid of the tail weight, and come in at right around 3 lb. I think even a 32 2-stroke would hover the plane at that weight.

holey swiss cheese batman!

yeah we are using hs 81's all the way around and a 250 mah battery. it will fly or crash , we are just interested to see what you can get away with. :stupid:

Looks like Coony's plane flew to close to the duck pond!!

WOW!!! Love to hear how it goes! How long did it take to put all those holes in? How'd you do it?

not all that long i made a cutter to cut them with. maybe an hour.

hey sgt, bring yours down when u come to look at the tigermoth b/c i ahve one also, the airfield is here behind my house so we can fly em together, i love my omp edge also, best flying profile i ahve had out of the many. mine is tt pro 46 w/ standard muffler and kudos of power
thx
