hehe here we go again... im stuck between the seagull edge 540 60 and the yak54 90,, the problem im haven is that the edge is rated for 60.. and yet it is bigger then the yak .. i might have a deal for a OS 91 2s.. (maybe) i was wonder which plane would suite that best.. o hope this is the last thread i start today... haha

Go for the Edge. It's lighter and will fly better on OS91

pitviper51 · 03-22-2007, 10:58 AM

just wondering,, im really hoping i can get the edge.. but what would be a min tq for the servos,, i have a few that get close to 100oz on 6volts,, and 2 that get about 110 at 6v,, would that be enough???

BoneDoc · 03-23-2007, 03:21 AM

probably ok, but are they metal gear?

pitviper51 · 03-23-2007, 11:01 AM

dont think so, crap!! haha need servos... i gotta measure the jeep to make sure its even possible to fit this best in there...

leeMcCrory · 03-23-2007, 01:49 PM

Get the yak an become a Edge Hater? Not sure what spawns a E,H But the Yak looks like a good culprit?

pitviper51 · 03-23-2007, 06:39 PM

i got to deep thinking today at work.. and i measure my jeep, its 58 inches from back of seat to hatch.. not to forget i want to use the gear from my profile, which doesnt have metal gear servos,, so im thinking i may end up withthe showtime 50..... i want to get one onthe way soon... and i want to keep a 4 stroke and i have this newish saito 82 from the profile... crazy waht we thnk of doing work...

you dont need metal gear servos for that plane mike... on allmost every servo made in metal gear train the very first gear is PLASTIC. so you can guess which gear goes out first

and you cant buy just that gear, you have to buy the whole set..

but with jr servos just flip the gear over get the letter and look at some of your standard servos and guess what youll see

pitviper51 · 03-24-2007, 07:56 AM

hmmm cool, thsi plan may still work then... i should know more later today...

SENEKAfive · 01-06-2008, 08:03 PM

edge all the way they fly real smooth and can do just about anything a yak con do but better

pitviper51 · 01-06-2008, 08:05 PM

after many flight on the edge now i would recommend it over the yak becasue its alot lighter, i run a 91 2s and it flys vertical ok,, you would need a 120 on the yak..

No airframe is TRULEY better than another, They both have strong points and weak ones. It's all in what kind of flying you do.

pitviper51 · 01-08-2008, 10:04 PM

true, but in this case the edge is a bit lighter. maken it need a less power to do the same as the other heavier one would with better engine.
