RE: BME Edge?
Ditto on that... I have the EF Mini 3D, Profile Edge and 68" Yak now (awesome planes) and a 87" Yak coming.
Simply top notch stuff all around.
Airo... 16.2 lbs is amazing. Mine was 17 1/4 (give or take an oz.) and I built it light... no wheel plants... lighter gear & wingtube... many are reporting 17.5+... I can only assume you used carbon fibre stuff...
If a person wanted to go to that expense with the BME, I think they'd get it close to 15 lbs...
