Default New Edge 540 Form CPLR

Here is a Pic of Christophe's new Edge. The plane is built by CA Models
and the quality of the plane is Great, right down to the covering. DR Hobbies has the one in the pic and is if the plane works out and flies like it looks, DR Hobbies will be selling them. The plane in the pic should be in the air in 2 weeks just waiting
on servos and hardware. I will give a full run down on the plane after we get some flights on it.
Here is some info I have on the Edge
Wing span 131in
Fuse 121in
Weight 46lbs
Motor 150/200 we will be running the Kroma 180

Put my name on one. I have been waiting for a good 40% edge Arf. Will it be an ARF? Stringers on the bottom or sheeted foam???

I was gonna comment on the 46lbs, but then saw that it's got 131 inches of wing on it. That's a fair sized airplane.

Looks sharp for sure. Can't wait to hear some feedback.

Looks to be the perfect airframe for the new 170's that are hitting the market.

Not sure its looking like aroung 2500.00 but Please don't hold me to that.

JeeUm
yes the new 170 will be great but we hope the Kroma 180 will be better LOL

No stringers foam on the top and bottom. Also there is a chance we will be offering the Edge in an ARC as well as the ARF

Very nice looking airplane. Todd, let us know if it is the best of both worlds. I hear this one is going to be as good a sequence flier as it is 3D.
