Default The year of the Edge 540 Continues!
Hey guys, we have been working the floor all day, talking with everyone. Lots of people are showing a lot of love for the Giants!

Our next stop was at Kevin Dietrich's booth, where he was showing the new Orange Slick 540, as well as his new 92" 50cc Edge 540. The Edge is 72" long, 1456 SQ inches of wing area and will be priced at $649.

It looks very much like a modified Edge from the Red Bull race series. Pretty BAD ASS!

Also, Kevin was displaying the Mintor line of motors.. ART WORK!!!! And new prices to boot!

Check out some shots.

We are heading over the the Gym for the ETOC to set up. We will be reporting more tomorrow!
Again Stay tuned.

PICS!

Dietrich is looking good... I second that.
I'm early in the threads but hope to see Cardens new Biplane there.
