3D Hobby Shop 48" Edge 540, THE must have for any hangar...


It's the newest release from 3DHobbyShop and it freakin rocks!!!  The new 48" Edge 540 is big, light, and smooth.  Reinforced wire landing gear as well as carbon rods from firewall to past the wing tube, she's almost bullet proof!  I watched a near disaster on an emergency landing after a battery popped loose and shifted as far back as the power leads could reach!  Gear flexed out almost as wide as they could go and and after a quick bend straight was airborne again in seconds.

I had a chance to toss it around, and with the Hobby Partz 4s 3000mah Blue Lipo packs and 13x6.5 APC sport prop the power is UNBELIEVABLE!  Airfoiled tail surfaces help this baby glide straight as an arrow at any speed.  Rolls are axial and high alpha flight is ridiculously simple. 

The good news is I got to fly one, super bad new is that I can't get my own until after the 15th?!  Thanks a lot 3D Hobby Shop, maybe you shouldn't be growing by leaps and bounds...
