Between the two of these planes which is the better for a first time large scale plane? I have a Vector Flight Extra right now and love it. I was planning on using a Moki 2.10 or 1.80 for power. I am kind of wanting the edge but have read on here that lots of people prefer the extra over it. So just wanted some personal opinions.

I've owned the Extra and flown the Edge. Both are very nice planes and are very good for getting into 3D flying. I like the way that the Edge snaps better than the Extra. The Edge could use some larger ailerons though. My Extra had a Moki 1.8 and could have used more power. I flew it later with a Brison 3.2 and it had plenty of power. The Edge I flew had a BME 50 and also had plenty of power. If I were to go with one now I'd probably get the Edge and power it with a 50cc gasser.

I fly the DP Extra. I like flying it alot. Its looks nice too. I have a DA 50 in mine with a 24x8 prop. It has straight up rolling unlimited vertical. It flies nice precision aerobatics and great 3D. I think the Edge has a pull pull on the elevator were the extra doesnt. Either one would be a good pick. I dont have a floppy disk with me so here is a link to a picture of mine.
