Edge 540 EP ARF

The original appears only at air shows, but you can take this compact performer virtually anywhere. The bold, clean profile is ready for crowd appreciation and the performance is star-quality: strong, commanding and as varied as the pilots who fly it. From predictable sport aerobatics to startling 3D stunts, the Edge 540 can do it all. 

• Ready for first performances in as little as 4-6 hours.
• Sized right for compact cars, nearby parks and your favorite airfield.
• Built from light, laser-cut woods.

With the Edge 540, there's no building or finishing -- just fast progress. An extensive, high-quality hardware package -- which includes a red spinner and adjustable servo linkages -- helps hold final assembly down to just 4-6 hours.

The Edge 540's cowl installs easily with powerful rare-earth magnets. That leaves its bold, clean lines unmarked and intact!

Big packs are no problem -- there's plenty of room. No tools are required; magnets make hatch removal and replacement easy -- and pack changes that much faster!

External servo mounts simplify installation, ease adjustments and shorten linkages, for faster, stronger response on demand.

The Edge 540 is already compact, but a 2-piece wing design makes it even easier to take along. Each wing panel slides onto a carbon fiber joiner tube -- and attaches with a single hex-head screw!

The trim scheme is distinctive, original and done in professionally applied MonoKote® film. The fiberglass cowl, ABS wheel pants and aluminum gear are already painted to match and ready to install.

Max power and throws, and the Edge 540 can master the 3D maneuvers you know today and whatever you learn tomorrow. Dial both back, and it can be an air show aerobat or a pleasant, undemanding sport flyer.

A strong, built-up mount is already in place. Reliance on outrunner brushless power means that a gear drive is unnecessary -- fact that makes the Edge 540 lighter and less expensive to equip.

After-maneuver orientation is easy, even at a distance. A checkerboard pattern on the wing’s underside helps you tell upside-down from right-side up in a flash.
