3D BBT 43% Carden VW Edge *re-do*

[Carrid02]

I know what you mean... that's been my struggle with 40% airplanes. They're usually not 3D monsters and don't typically fly like a 35%er/DA120. This airplane is sooo light and has such incredible power that it does look/fly like a 35%er.

I can't wait!!!

I got the ailerons programmed and the crow function/mix setup. I'll post a video to show how it works

Well, I finally made some good progress this morning. The pipe tunnel is fixed and the pipes are installed. I also attached the "bling" (spot-on pipe extensions). So, the tunnel/headers/pipes are 100% finished.

I also got all the new H9 arms attached to the Durant boxes and began programming the rudder servos. I'll probably finish this up tonight/tomorrow morning and move on to tidying everything up.

It doesn't look like we'll be flying this weekend due to weather, but I'll at least get this monster out and run it!!!

Beautiful plane! I love me some Carden's.

Thanks!!! Me too! Love the lines!

Btw, I got the tail finished this morning by getting the new servos installed and programmed. All I really have left to do now is tidy the wires up and button up the front end!

Slowly working on VW. I got the CF plate I ordered in the mail, along with some "no weld" smoke nozzles and a Harris smoke pump.

I got the elevator hinge gap covered this morning and plan to do the rudder tonight.

I'm leaving for a work conference at 6:00am tomorrow through late Saturday so no progress and no flying in the plans this weekend
