Default edge 540 or cap 232

Todd,I have both of these planes,the Cap had a 3W-80b2 but now has a 3W-75 single and it is an awesome flying plane with either,,it will do anything 3D.I am waiting on my DA-100 for the Edge to come in so I haven' flown it yet.There was a thread comparing the two of these planes here on RCU,but I don't remember which forum it was in,maybe someone else does and can direct you to it.Have you checked out the videos of the Cap @ www.downonthedeck.com pretty cool.The Edge is a little larger than the Cap but not much.I don't think you can go wrong with either one,the Edge assembly is a little more involved but not bad,and Aeroworks customer service is unsurpassed as far as I am concerened,they always answer the phone and are very friendly.good luck,let us know what you decide.

Todd,one other thing to consider is that the Cap is a limited edition plane,so parts,ie:wings cowl,stab etc., probablly won't be available for long should you need them.Aeroworks told me that all the parts from their built up kit fits the ARF,so replacements shouldn't be a problem,just food for thought.
Mike.

Get the Edge.
It is a more stable flyer

I agree!! I had the 1/4 H-9 Cap & it flew great but it liked to land at 100mph!! Traded up to an Edge & I love it so much I now own 2. These things fly great and landings are much more enjoyable!!

Keep'm Off The Ground!!
