after many "tough" flights, the ExtremeFlight Edge 540 slab is once again re-incarnated and ready for flight duty..!

it has been broke in half i think 5 times now..it might be 6..has had at different times, a YS53, a YS63, and YS63fz, a Saito 72, and now, since the latest round of repairs and weighing in at over 6-1/2 lbs, a Saito .91 with a 15x4W mounted up and ready to go..!!

that freakin prop is lookin' mighty big on there..!!! I LOVE IT...am gonna try and get 'er back in da air this weekend..!

what none of the pics show, is that in my "fixins" on the plane, once or twice i might have forgot to check how straight things are, and it now has about a 20degree "hook" in the fuse behind the "canopy" section.it has been crooked for a while, and flies even better than it used to..!

i cannot recommend this plane enough..it has been the absolute hands-down winner for toughness for anything i have ever destroyed/flown..!

Chris has them in stock now at http://www.extremeflightrc.com and they are worth their weight in GOLD..!!
