| I would for sure go with a Wildhare edge v 2 for the money and service he offers its a hard combo to beat. The only problem is you have to get on a list to get one they go fast. Also i have the SD models edge with a Taurus 3.2 on it and it is a awesome flying plane. Chief Aircraft has it priced right , over $200 cheaper than i paid for mine. Just my thoughts.

I am waiting on mine and I can hardly wait. Just so you know, the one that I saw with a Da50 was very tail heavy. Thank god we checked the CG.

I know you are not going to believe me.. but if you can find a KMP edge.. it is INSANE. Mine is 15.4 lbs and fly's really nice. Floats... And you can find them for $299 - $325... can't beat that with a stick!
