| Uber Contributer ![]() | Hey like the tittle says. What edge 540 should I buy. I am flying a showtime 4d right now but I was a gasser around a 80" wingspan. I really like the 540s.So that is what I decided to buy nexted. But the problem I am having is that there is so many companys making them. I was looking at the Precision aerobatics. It seems nice. Im looking for a plane in the $500 range. max. I mean I would really like a composite but I can afford one. So please help me. If you could please add the links to you message for the company that you think would be best if you dont mind. Thanks Tom |

| Bad-ass Super Contributer! ![]() | Not many newer Edges out in this size. I would recommend taking a look at some Extras and Yaks in the 50 cc size. 80 inches is kinda a tweener....between gas and glow. Go 84 to 87 span. The newer designs are coming in lighter per flight reports. These include the Aviation Models, Aeroworks and Air Wild Extra 260's. I'd also take a look at the Wild Hare 50 cc Extra 300 (the new model). Ultra RC has a Giles around 80 span that is best on glow and they are coming out with an 87 span Yak that is the old Extreme Flight design (very light for its size). Also, Extreme Flight has promised to announce a new 50 cc bird in the next few days. I'd wait to see what they have but you better jump on it right away if you like their offering. If you are set on an Edge, and you want an ARF, the Precision Aerobatics 50 cc Edge is reported to be very light. Not sure how many people have it in the states though. By the way, for not too much more money, you can go 33% and get a 80 cc single. Bigger usually flies better. Good luck.
