Re: which 50cc Edge
I think the new WH Edge could be a winner.

Re: which 50cc Edge
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.

Re: which 50cc Edge
That, is a good deal. I know a few guys that have that or his Edge and get them in at 17# even. Not light, but for the money a great flying airplane for $399...free shipping!

Re: which 50cc Edge
I love my BME but for the money I'd go WildHare. The V2 Edge is a nice flyer. He pushed the stabs forward and the result was a much more stable harrier.

Re: which 50cc Edge
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.

Re: which 50cc Edge
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!

Re: which 50cc Edge
How did you fix it. I thought it was still unbalanced. Or did you fix it with the spinner.

Re: which 50cc Edge
I haven't flown it yet, but my BME/PAU Edge is nearly complete and so far I am very impressed with the kit! Definitely on the higher end of 50cc offerings out there. Big control surfaces, super light, and carbon parts everywhere with the kit. When I get done with training here I'll be getting the Edge in the air!
