Default 3D Fly Model edge 540

Does it seem heavy? How are the control surfaces for 3d? I want to get one for 3D but too many of these cheaper kits such as seagull are too heavy for 3d out of hte box.

Im going on my second 50cc edge from fly model. Lost the first one due to stab retention screws coming out. I only got 3 flights on it with a EME 55. The plane is an absolute 3d machine. It's flys as good as any other 50cc 3d airframe out there. It actually outperforms my pilot sbach of the same size. It's well built, the covering is flawless and the paint work is perfect. It's one of the best kept secrets in RC. $355 shipped to my door, you just can't beat it. Toss ALL the screws though. The wheels, tank, axles, pushrods and ball links are fine along with the control horns. The screws are typical garbage that comes with these type of planes.

That looks great! (Besides the second picture )
May I ask for a link to where you bought it, and what was required to complete the plane?
I'm fairly new to 3D flying and this has really grabbed my attention, especially the price you mentioned.
