The servo response/power is insane!

You've got an incredible radio / electronic spec there.. It'll become very appreciated in the air

My Edge has the exact same set-up and love it... Wouldn't change it for the world!!

Maiden complete

It was a bit windy so we just took it easy - nothing fancy - a couple of circuits, some practice approaches, and then a gentle landing. Then we repeated that whole process again so 2 flights on her so far!

It flew beautifully - the rearward cg will take some getting used to though. Bring the power down during approaches and the tail sinks - that's a new one for me but made for a nice 3-point landing on the 2nd flight!

Video to follow sometime in the next day or so

Re: BBT Extreme 43% Edge w/DA200 on PIPES!!!
Right on!!!!!!!!!!!!

Congrats on the maiden!

Chris... The CG is about 1 1/2" behind the recommended and should be hands off whether inverted or normal flight... Should be the same as where mine is. With that SBUS system, it'd be easy to move a battery forward if it feels too tail heavy!!

How did the motor perform? Enough power? LOL!

Can't wait for the video also!!

Sounds good. I think we just need to get used to that CG to improve our 3d

Motor is incredible. Easy to start, unlimited power (never had it over half), reliable, what more could we ask for!!

Tough to beat the smoothness and performance of the quads, especially in the mid-range!!

Did you get a chance to flip it inverted and feel the balance? Mine is hands off in either orientation, so yours should be also since the CG is the same.

Ok here it is. Not much to look at since it was so windy. There was a huge storm cell at our backs and the wind coming off that was crazy.

Nevertheless, maiden
