What about a 540T??? Not that I'm much of an Edge fan, but your .46-60 size 54t is one of the nicest looking Edges - it needs to be made available in 50-150cc - maybe just a simple hatch change would accommodate? That would be an awesome option...

Hey everyone. Thought I would jump in here and share my experiance with the new 100cc Edge 540.
I made it out on friday to do some flying with Rocco from Aeroworks and a good friend of ours, Randy.
Rocco brought out the prototype of the 100cc Edge. I just love this plane! I am really serious about getting one of these.
The Orange scheme is just beautiful and shows very well in the air. Watching Rocco fly it was just awesome!
I was really excited when he asked if I wanted to take the sticks. I didn't try anything crazy or that, just some
basic flight and some KE passes which were great. The plane flies very nice! Rocco did some amazing harriers with the Edge and I didn't see
any wing rock. I was really amazed when he did an awesome harrier landing with and it and landed so gentle.
Those of you who are in line to get one will be very pleased.

Check out the photos. Rocco is doing the flying.
The one picture is the 100 Edge, my 75cc Extra 260 and Randys 100cc Extra 300.

This Edge is killing me. I was content with my planes until I saw this one. I think come August/September I may pull the trigger on one of these... or I may wait for a 150cc version!! Very nice!
Great lines.

Update:

The video for the 100cc Edge is now on our website along with a new pre-order special. If you place a preorder for the 100ccc or 50cc Edge you will receive free shipping. This will save you 189.95 on the 100cc and 89.95 on the 50cc! Anyone who has placed a preorder before this offer was put into effect will still receive the free shipping.

Here is a link to the new video: http://www.aero-works.net/store/detail.aspx?ID=382
