Finally got my Aeroplus Edge all buttoned up ready for the maiden maybe tomorrow weather dependant.
Today I ran another tank through the VVRC 20cc it seemed start running alot better a good strong idle. I had to make a couple small tweaks to the high speed needle. I also did all the radio set up with the new Futaba had a small learning curve to get over with the duel rates and throw adjustment but not to bad at all. I'm really digging the radio more and more. Last thing I did was went over all the nuts bolts and joint to make sure I didn't leave anything loose. Finally got it down stairs and put it on the Vanessa rig and balanced the plane. The recommnded CG is 3.5in seems a little to far forward we will see though. The plane balanced well I added 1oz of led to the firewall. The AUW of the plane came out to just under 7.5lbs. I can't wait to get the first flight on it.

That' pretty cool it's a super slick looking radio! I was going back and forth trying to decide between the
iX12 and the Futaba 16sza I ended up getting the Futaba. Interested to hear how you like it.

A little cold to be flying right now, but will be playing around with it to check out all the stuff it does. One thing I did notice since it has an Android OS, no camera!!

I have a lightly used DX9 Black I will be listing for sale if anyone is interested, TX only, mode 2

I thought it did have a camera. I thought I had read you could take pictures of your model for the model menu. I guess maybe loading it to the tx is what they meant.
