Great day at the field today! Could not have been better! Big gassers and Big fun! Electrics too! Three RC buddies flying the new QQ 300 with gyro stabilization. I flew my 104 and YES:eek: a Hexcopter. Thought I was getting some cool vid but when time to load the file it came out as "corrupted"o_O. Some shots of todays fun.........:)

That many people show up the fly in the middle of the week ? We have to put on an event to get that many people show up. On a normal weekend we have 5 guys show up.

So I decided to try out the little edge profile I built on 4S power over the 3S I normally fly it on. It had way more power than it needed so on 4S it's absolutely nuts. It become one very responsive and loose bird and I liked it. Snaps are very violent now.

I think @ericrs might think he needs a DA in his next plane [emoji1]. My "new to me" DA 70 runs like a charm. That EF 91" is the best flying plane I've ever flown. It tracks like a dream, and the elevator authority will make it stand up on its tail quite quickly!
I had a pipe slip out of the coupler on the third flight so it put an end to the fun, but it was sure fun while it lasted. EF definitely has made a keeper with this plane!

That's funny because a very good friend had his pipe slip out too on his 88" EF Edge. I'm still "dialing in " my EF 104. Lateral balance is way off. Need to add about 2 oz of weight to the right wing tip. Did my first High Alpha KE on the deck with it Wednesday. My friend thought I was being to "risky". I had all the confidence in the world. This is the best KE plane I have ever owned. Just need to get my balance issues worked out. Oh! and taming down the DA120 a bit. IMHO the 104 is definitely "overpowered" with it.
