Default Taking your plane for a walk

OH MY GOSH I am still finding more and more things that this OMP edge will do !!!

I had this one in a low hover about three feet away and two feet off the ground and was just walking behind it around the soccer field, three times. It was cool to watch the control surfaces move and react.

Another thing I found out kinda cool that I have never seen before is to put it into a high alpha knife edge with a little up elevator and it will SLOWLY fly knife edge circles around you.

That was about four hours ago and I still have an ear to ear grin

Sounds like BIG fun. Mine shipped today, I can't wait to get started on it. I've got a Sledge on the way too, and I'm on the list for one of the first run of Yaks as soon as OMP has them ready to ship.

I am in the process of covering my sledge right now. I am finding it hard to imagine that it could possibly more stable in a hover or harrier as people keep saying. But I am willing to give it a try.

I have been tracking my OMP since it shipped Monday, and just found out it left Salt Lake City at 2 this morning, that means it should be here when I get home from work today, a few days sooner then expected. Sounds like I made a great choice here.

I am wondering now about getting the GS540 before the YAK.
So many choices!!!

At our field we make figure eights low to the ground, in a harrier and my friend coined the term walk in the park! Lots of fun! I have the omp edge kit .40 size and I am just about finished with the giant edge profile. And I have been flying the daylights out of my sledge. All are great planes, and provide maximum fun.

I figure with my OMP and Sledge I'll have all the funfly action I'll need.
