Default OMP Edge 540 V3 Build

I decided to do a build thread of one of OMP's originals. This is the Edge 540 V3. This plane has a wing span of 47" and a length of 47". Weight is close to 4.25 lbs and is powered by .46-.63 two stroke engine or .60-.82 four stroke engine. I will be powering this plane with a OS 46 FX engine and using Hitec 645 Servos. Running Futaba FASST 2.4 7 channel rx with a Nihm 4.8 or 6 v battery on board.
This is the all white version of the edge which is covered with all Ultra Cote. I plan in the future to put some colors on it.

Ill have more pictures tomorrow!

Are you still working on this one. I'm interested in the ProYak 47....but this is pretty similar. I have always wondered how they would 3d with a 2 stroke.

At the time I started the thread school wasnt being sooo hard on me. Now it is! Over Spring Break I left it back at home for my granddad to do a new covering job on the all white version. When I get back in May I will take pics and fly it. I know the Edge 540 is a 3d machine and a great 3D trainer plane. As for the Yak personally I havnt flown one yet, but heard they are also a 3d machine.
