Snowdog to the rescue! LOL! Never another Sebart for me....hooked on 3DHS thanks to Snowdog. the 58" edge he sold me is a great flying plane. I've had the rates pretty low until I get used to this plane, I have to admit, a 3/4 throttle Sbach into a barrier fence left me a little gun shy! We did some battery swapping this weekend because my Hacker A40 was a little light on power and flight time in the Edge. I swapped Snow dog some 4S batteries he needed for some 6S I needed and I think we both are happy now. I think I'm gonna have to program some throttle out of the plane now or I'm gonna rip the motor box out! LOL Ordered some B&E graphics for the Edge yesterday, I'll be flyin and stylin by the weekend. Thanks Snowdog!!!!!!!!!

Bruce... A motrofly and 58 on 6s is Awesomeness.. Don't pull the throttle out, you'll miss the rooaaaarr it makes at wot.. ;-)

have fun buddy!

I hope everyone is out flying and that's why the posts are slow..

Had a great time at the airshow yesterday up in west milford NJ with a fellow hucker who can out himself. Got to see Kirby Chambliss and the redbull squirrels as well as the iron eagles before my son said it was time to go ;-)

Here's a snap in front of his edge

Some would reply and say "video or it didn't happen" , I am simply going to say what is a Scream?

Went back up and Brian got some video of me doing it for you.
It's a climb, roll to KE, then rudder over

Sweet, that's awesome! There's endless variants to the scream too, so it's a good maneuver to learn.

Getting a little more in depth to what gyro said, the standard scream is:
from straight and level pull up to a 45 deg. upline
1/2 way through the upline(so if you do a 50 ft upline, at 25 ft.) you do a 1/4 roll(so you are now "canopy in" or "landing gear/belly in")
at the top of your upline, give rudder to push the nose to the ground(45 deg. downline)
1/2 way through the downline do another 1/4 roll in same direction as previous roll
when at the same altitude you started at you will give down elevator so you are back to staright and level, but now inverted

the control inputs

up elevator
aileron
rudder
aileron
down elevator
