I'm guessing that it'll be very similar to their 88" Extra. Wingspan 88", about 17-19 pounds depending on the setup. It'll fly like a dream because Chris can't make them any other way.

Yup. 88" ws, and if I'm not mistaken, I think that the length is 80. It should come in around 17lbs.

It looks a lot like the Extra except for the straight leading edge of the wing. I'm sure there are other differences and tweaks they made along the development. Main wing and stab positions look pretty much the same to me.

Here's some things to compare. The Edge is a PAU.

I don't think that is the one that crashed...That one in the picture has a snapasaurus logo on the cowl and naked women and dollar signs all down the sides of it, haha.

my best bet would be the 30% PAU Edge 540. I had one for a long time and i flew both imac and freestyle with it. It flys so well its unreal. Easiest 3d plane to fly. and the price is right
