I am almost finished with the Edge. Need to mount wheel pants, tail wheel, canopy and break engine in. Overall it is a great plane and easy to build. I am going with a Klett tailwheel and mounted the Saito 100 inverted. These are the only thing I did different. Attached are photos of almost finished plane and I will have a video in a week or so.

Keep up the post looking forward to the flight report. I have been looking at this airplane to replace one that is premantly in the hanger.

I would be interested in knowing the rtf weight (less fuel).

6.5lbs

Thanks!

Here are a couple more pictures of the Edge

Here are a couple of the engine mounted and the throw. Looks good!

Nice Job Mikerc, keep up the good work. Let us know how she fly's

Cubflyer, Thank you for your help on the assembly. You did a great job.

Hey Mikerc,
I'm seriously considering the Skyshark 540 Edge for my son and I. We have a nicely broken in Saito 100 to use in it. Keep us posted on the flying aspects of this aircraft and how it suits your flying style. I'm primarily a sport flyer and my son flys freestyle and 3D. Looking forward to your next post.

Going to break in engine tomorrow and if weather hold up I will be flying.

Our weather has been a mess with tropical storm Arlene out in the Gulf, so no flying this weekend.
I spent this morning removing my Saito 100 from another airplane and cleaning it up. I'll probably put in a order for the Skyshark Edge 540 this coming week. Wishing you good weather!

any reports on how well she flys.

flew one today, it had a ovs 90 on it flew great needed more power for 3d; very well built for a arf. i've got a 91fx on the shelf and a skyshark edge 540 on order should be here in 2-4 days

I think it flies pretty good. I have a video on SkySHarks site. Check it out.
