I have received a few pictures of the new airplane and they look GREAT! Counter balances on wing and stab will increase scale appearence and also improve 3D capabilities. The new Edge's will also have wing tips added to the standard wing, just like the Red Bull racing guys. This will look better and increase the wing area a little bit to help lower stall/landing speeds.

The FlAME scheme has been ordered for you!

Bill: Are these new Edge's in the container that was justed shipped. If so how many and are they available to order? Let's see some pictures??

Airplane is still being finalized and did not make the container. There is a possibility that I will have one on display at the 2010 AMA Trade Show in Ontarion, California though. My builders are finishing up the Ultimates and Edges now that my 'other' order has shipped. The new time frame on these will be March 2010 maybe sooner..
Pictures... well....... not yet. It will look better if they are covered/painted before I share those.

Ok, here is an update.

THe container that was shipped last Wednesday did not actually ship. The miscommunication was that the container was to ship Wednesday 16 December. Well, when I heard that news...........well lets just say I had a pleasent discussion with my builders and promises that were broken. So here is the deal. The container is hold another week so the new Edge 540's and Ultimate 20-300 can make the container. This will save me a lot of $$ trying to send those airplanes seperatley. Now, my builders garantee me that all airplanes can/will be shipped NEXT week. This means no X-mas presents under the tree. No cool new airplanes to show off at the 2010 AMA Trade show....etc, etc... But we will have new airplanes in January. If you have placed an order for one of the new airplanes please be a little more patient, thanks.
