Better take a look at the new Wild Hare 35% Edge or 35% 260. www.wildharerc.com. Watch the two videos of the Edge. One is using the 85.

Money kept in the bank and great airplanes along with excellent customer support if needed.

Evan, get an Aero Works 75cc Extra or Yak. The new scheme on the Yak is very nice. Oh yeah, it's an AW plane so you know you're getting good stuff.

Congrats on Tuscon!

Any of the 35% Wild Hare kits. The 41% Giles does extremely well with an 85 too.

the PAU 36% edge is perfect with the 85.Ken-h is flying one with the 85 and its stupid power. Heres a video of one with the 85.

New kit so it may not be up yet. Drop a note in the W/H forum at RCU. I know he posted some pictures of the cowl, engine mounting, and hatch in the "New 35% Edge" thread I've been working on over there. Pop him an e-mail at Tom@wildharerc.com

ask yourself what the flying priority is - IMAC / 3D some will better than others at certain aspects but there are lot of choices coming out. I have the QQ 101 and it fly's really good and the engine has plenty of power for for anything under 26-27lbs.

Harv ; that is some really pretty scenery you're flying in.
