This airframe shows the same qualities as others made by World Models. Could you provide pictures of the hardware package, or the tail wheel so we could confirm or deny this.

It's always nice to see a new Edge out on the market but I can't understand for the life of me why would they allow such a ugly color scheme into production?
I don't want to bust your stones pal I just hope it fly's better than it looks.

Do they offer a ARC version?

Roger in my eyes the color arrangement just doesn't seem to flow together with the colors used but like you said its in the eyes of the beholder.
It's nice to hear that a ARC version will be available in time.

Blame CPLR if you don't like the color scheme. It is just like his original.
