Thanks Ken. I should have also mentioned that the No Limitz spinner is fiberglass, not carbon fiber. A little less worry regarding dust when cutting these spinners.

My schedule at work is not solid. I don't find out what I'm doing until the night prior. The weekend is also crap for me as my family are coming in town for my Promotion to Major on Saturday.

Dan,

The Carbon Fiber Version is available as well, but the Silver weave is a bit more unusual. Nice work cutting for your 3 Blades.
Flyinrazrback did post a very nice picture with CF.

Dan,

I like the color combo of the CF and FG weave. I've got a white one on mine now and it's hold up to the abuse the 85 puts on it.

PAU 36% edge Build part 2:

Hey guys, picked up the edge 540 today. This is a bad ass plane. It came in two big boxes. Double boxed in carboard which is really nice. I havent got a chance to go through everything completely. Im trying to clean up my work table at the moment. Ill try and get some pics up tonight. I should be able to get the plane on its feet and get the covering cut for all the servos and holes, etc. Stay tuned.(If there is a certain section fo the build you want to ahve more detail on just say it and ill try to show more pics and more wording on what i did/do)

Yeah Dan, the big singles can shake a bit more than the twins. So far so good and that 85 has really been a good little motor.

You know I was going to but BF said he and the other members of Congress/Senate/WH are going to cut my spending by 25% in November......that is going to hurt me alot!

You know I'd put my 35% Aerotech Edge that I have sitting in the shop with everything needed to fly just not installed and programmed to the side to get my hands on one of your planes.

I've flown both of Ken's personal PAU edges (36% and 43%). They were just plain awesome.

Pcitures pictures and more pictures. I managed to get the main part of the fuse complete. I ahve the gear installed, and tail gear installed. All the holes that need to be cut out fo the covering. That went together way to fast. So i was forced to work on the stabs which took too little time. I still have yet to mount the rudder. BTW: ON inseption fo the fuselage and stabs, I didnt find one single wrinkle.

How are you doing the rudder

Push/Pull or Pull/Pull?
