Does anyone recognize this Edge 540 73" wing span. I bought it used and the individual told me he believed it was a KMP but I cannot find any information on it. Please note the Edge 540 decal on the side, it appears to be unique the 540 is up and down rather than side to side. It did not start out as a gasser. It may have been a 1.20 or 1.60 nitro. 540 resized.jpg Thanks RCMadness |

A member at our field has that exact same edge , and he bought it off of ebay. I'm not sure what the brand is , but you still see it every now and again on ebay for sale. the guy who bought it , bought it from a dealer as well , whom sells all sorts of different aircraft on there.

There are alot of similar looking edge's with the same color scheme including the ones ons ebay which are quite a bit lower on quality. The structure of the Powerline edges is super high quality. Adjustable engine boxes, well built landing gear framing. I have flown them with O.S. 1.60's, Supertigre 3250's, and O.S. BGX's. Great flying planes. 3d's well. But it is an edge. |

Thanks for all your replies, I have not been able to locate any information on it as of yet but I am still looking. Ok for the big question, is this thing too much for me to start flying after not flying airplanes for a while. I have been flying a Trex 600n and 450 helicopter for the last 9 months or so and got the itch for a plane. This one came up and I thought it was a really good buy so I made an impulse buy (I am sick of paying $30 for a gallon of fuel for my helis, I can afford it but it makes it not so much fun to fly). I have been flying it on the sim for about a week and it seems soooo easy after flying the helis. Have I lost my mind or if I set the rates low I should be able to ease it around until I get my wings back on. Does anyone know where I can get the Throw settings for the control surfaces and the CG info? Last edited by rcmadness; 10-03-2008 at 06:58 PM. |
