This is Ver One of Goldwing Edge 540 25%

PowerPlant     XYZ 26 CC 16x 8 Prop

Servo            Sanwa 94851high torque on all Futaba 3004 on throttle

Futaba 8UHP with Frsky Module, High Volt Rx, two LiFe 6.4 Volt Batt without powerbox,

Needed to be tail heavy slightly, larger fuel tank moved back therefore no standoff.

Flew 3 Sorties.

Thrust line was perfect,
16x8 isn't enough will change to 18x8 once broken in
Flew like expected nice and smooth, tracks well, snap was just about ok (flew at low throw), Hover lacked power, Blender was neat, KE will require some mix, bellying in, Roll will need to be mixed too, yawing a bit. All in all, beauty to fly

Six more flights, Cowl will go in and may be some decals too (I hate extra decals though, well, will stick whatever came along)
