    I have never flown an extra. Maybe you guys that have owned edges and extras can tell us the difference in flying characteristics? To me it looks like the extras land a little hotter but track better at higher speeds. Like I said, I have never flown one so I can only go by videos.

    Wheels!

    I am not trying to single you guys out on the wheel issue, everyone offers the same wheel. I had no illusions they would last. I just thought it would be nice to get input from the guys who have done the trial and error. I had never heard of Airman wheels so this has been a positive thread for...

    Wheels!

    Better yet, I will make new wheels from 4 inch gauze pads and a half quart of epoxy, them machine the epoxy on a lathe I will build from a Dyson vacuum cleaner. lol

    Everyone was pretty quiet because they realize you are insane! You must be a frikin' bat. Most people can't see in the dark and thus don't want to lose their 100cc plane in the dark. When I saw your plane disappear in the dark...I have to admit...some pee shot out. Thats a great video. I feel...

    I suppose a guy would be rolling the dice with these? http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/251999382092?ul_noapp=true&chn=ps&lpid=82

    Wheels!

    They are for a PAU edge. I run the sullivans on my Hempel cub but they are a little heavier. (Hempel provides the same useless wheel). I really don't care what they look like as they will be covered by the wheel pants. As long as they are not made from the recycled plastic frogs you used to get...

    Wheels!

    I looked a little and couldn't find a thread about wheels. I had a wheel self detonate on my 100cc size bird this last weekend. No hard landings. I believe that most of the arf's now come with these wheels that to me, appear to be rejects from the barbie doll corvette factory! Before I buy a set...

    Power systems/ Hitec A9?

    I suppose the maximas are not transeivers so that can be done.

    Power systems/ Hitec A9?

    Just an update to answer my question. I bought a Powerbox Competition and got it all set up with ease. Running the smart fly optical kill and it all works flawlessly. Plenty of room for more gadgets. I am still waiting for a bigger radio to come out from Hitec however.

    3D Harvest Huck - Sept. 17-20th

    The Law is the busiest person there other than fellas that ran the event. Oh, and the chef. Lets not forget the food dude cooking all day long.

    I was able to see the Viper in action this weekend. This is an awesome plane! Nice flying Terry.

    Got 8 flights on the edge now. After a little p mix advice from Terry, she is spot on. I am sooooo happy with the performance of this plane. My only gripe about this plane is that it won't leave me alone when I am sleeping. It taunts me in my dreams!

    Ah great! Now they do. I bought a flimsy fortitude for mine. The dubro is tougher but I like to see the pretty gas. Now I am going to have to buy another PAU..... definitely the ultimate bipe.

    Dan, how does that extra fly? Just curious because my buddy had that plane with a dle 170 on cans and he complained that it ballooned on throttle and dove with the throttle off. He tried thrust angle changes to no avail. He flies imac and has owned several large scale aircraft and was stumped...

    I had a dle 30 that shook bad. I bought a vv 40 twin and at idle there is virtually no vibration. I have that 40 in my hempel 25 cub. My buddy has the same plane in a different color and he has a dle 35ra and it doesn't shake nearly as bad as the dle 30 did. It is not as smooth as the vv40 but...
