| Thanks for the Support!   | Re: Why not a edge 540 From what i understand, when you get to the upper levels of IMAC, the edge dosen't snap as well as say an Extra or a YAK. I believe this is a result of the straight leading edge. But for general Flight, Edges rule, and for 3D they are amazing. I have a 30% edge (KMP) with a DA 50, its 15.3 lbs and is AMAZING. Hope that helps a little.

| Bad-ass Super Contributer!   | Re: Why not a edge 540 They don't snap well at all and that straight leading edge makes it easier for judges to think your line is off. I haven't seen an Edge perform well in precision competitions pretty much ever...

| A fifth of Peter.  | Re: Why not a edge 540 Stall maneuvers are also tough, when that straight wing stalls it doesn't break, it just mushes forward. Makes it tough to do the required spin maneuvers, I have to coax mine into it with rudder, where as my Cap will go much more smoothly into a spin.

| Flyin' Around | Re: Why not a edge 540 1200.00 built (lightend by about 3 pounds ) a few other things 900.00 for kit 300.00 to build sence i dont have a way to sheet any thing & he has every thing to build it i think its a great deal. ive flown his its awsome. as Eurylokhos said it dose not stall to well but when the tail drops a little kick the rudder and there it is. i only fly basic. dont plane to do any other class. im not in it for the compition, im in it for the fun, friends, & shop talk, freestyle, i just like getting out & meeting new people. |
