Looks like the old H9 78" Edge. That one was great at doing the fabulous folding wing trick.

Wrong color, not H9. I had one of the early ones. Perhaps Lanier.

Heck I'm not even sure if its the H9. Need a better photo. The elevators should be blue not yellow but that could have been recovered.

Is it a 1-piece wing with a notched out section in at the center Leading edge?

I think there is a taper to the leading edge making this an EXTRA instead of an edge. Anyting beyond that, yes we would need a better pic.......lanier, Goldberg, Zimpro????

Unfortunatly thats the best pic I have, I do not have it in my posession. The red stripe on the wings have a different taper than the H9 bird otherwise looks almost identical minus the fact that its bigger, takes a 50cc. I did notice the elevator stripe is also similar yet not complete. Perhaps it was recovered or installed upside down.
