Default RE: Scale pattern plane?

I don't recall Joe Bridi designing the Kaos with sharp leading edges like the MKB had.

Wait, just checked, nope, and just checked it's predecessor, the sun-fli, and that's another no.

The control line stunt guys figured out a long time ago that the shape of a leading edge can make or break an aircraft, and sharpness is a big boo-boo.

Don't get me wrong, I love the idea of a pattern-stang, I just think there's better planes out there for pattern, and there's better airfoils out there than that sharp nastyness the MKB has.
