Additional Oxalys info.

The fuse in the photo shows only one version, the one piece wing. This airplane will be available in a plug-in wing version also. Same airplane, two configurations. This is slated to be standard for all future designs that begin life with a one piece wing.

Robert,
Good news and bad news. The good news is that the Edge 540 is still in the works. The CAD is still being finished up and hopefully it will be tested later in the summer. Yes, this has to one of the longest concept-to-flight projects in modeling history, but the finished airplane should be magnificent. JP and I took ahold of the naked wing and gave it a twist test. VERY VERY strong. Stuctural integrity is incredible. This one is going to be within the 5kilo limit and very conducive to accepting aggresive 3D abuse from moderately skilled mortals such as myself. Oh, the bad news. Perhaps next year before a kit is produced.

Regards,
Mark
