Too many choices, too poor to buy the wrong one!!!!!

Edge 540 60 size


Yellow Aircraft- $249.99 (ish) http://www.yellowaircraft.com/aerobatic/edge60.htm

Seagull- $174.99 (ish) https://www2.mailordercentral.com/qu...item=2&mitem=4

If you want an Edge then you can eliminate the Hobbico Extra that you linked to.

Yellow Aircraft is very hard to beat--not the cheapest---but if it is the plane I wanted, $75 would not stop me. I have owned a LOT of ARFs in the last 12 years--working on the AW 31% Edge right now-- I had a Yellow Extra 300 120 size. The only ARFs close in quality of workmanship is the GP Patty 300 Dave Patrick Ultimate, and the GP Pitts. (you will forget about the difference in money soon)

FF, the Seagull is prettier, bigger and substantially less expensive. For $75 take a chance. If you don't like it, Quantum will take it back without a hassle.

Keep us posted?

Firefighter,
Your only here one time.
Buy what you think YOU will be happy with.
I was going to build a nice field tote box and my Girl Friend ordered me the best they had at TH.
$75.00 is not that much and again is if your not happy with the one you pick.
Look at the specs,
Ask yourself what you want from the plane.
Look at the plus and minus of each.
Hope this helps
