Default BME Edge Maiden Flight

Hi Guy's,
Well after stuffing my WH Ultimate on its maiden a couple of weeks back, I replaced it with a BME Edge V III. Well today in between rain squalls me and my brother decided to go out and fly, so I took the Edge out. With a DA50 the vertical was out of this world!!! we had a 15 mph crosswind but this plane flew rock solid. It came in at 17lbs dry, but the DA50 had no problem with this weight. It hovered around 1/3 throttle and would climb out of it with authority. I had read good things about this plane on the site, but it really is a great flyer. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a 50CC size aircraft.

Glad ir flew well for you. Watch the landing gear at it's shoulders if it is made out of fiberglass. I have their yak, great flyer, cracked gear in first few flights. Not just me though, many others did as well....
