If it wasn't so windy at this moment i would be slightly closer to knowing the answer about which flies better...balsa or foam.

I have 32 hours on a Mini E3D and love it. My AirfoilZ Edge has only 45 minutes, and but feels very solid. I really want to hear from good pilots who have flown both. Shaped wing designs, such as the AirfoilZ are said to, of course fly much better than flat wing designs and any comments to that would be appreciated.

Both the mini e3d and airfoil edge have the same power system (hacker 20-20 w/various lipos used up to tp3s2100). The mini e3d weighs 15.5 ozs/ airfoilz 17.2 ozs.

The carbon fiber pushrods that are stock on the airfoilz are the way to go for any sport/ 3d plane.
