RE: Edge or Cap
 

hello Wounded and welcome to the RCU community!

I from your list I would recommend something from www.Vectorflight.com

they offer a 58" and a 66" Extra and a 66" Edge that is really nice. Do a search on them here and you will find nothing but positive remarks.

easy to build, sturdy and fly incredibly well. The price is almost impossible to beat to boot.


good luck

Get the bigger plane in an Edge

RE: Edge or Cap
 

Follow diablokids advice and get the 66 inch extra from Vectorflight. I recently got one of these and WOW what a great plane. The price alone is one reason to buy one but once you fly one you will be hooked. This is the best flying plane that I have ever had and I have had a lot ( about 30 planes). Power it with a 91 4 stroke engine and it will be perfect. Vectorflight's customer service is the best in the business also.

Take a look at the Edge 540T from Pacific Aeromodels in either a 40 size or 60 size.
Just bought the 40 size after much research and I am delighted with it.
This ARF leaves very little for the builder to do, they thought of everything.
Control rods already cut to length and Z bends added with clevises already installed.
Fuel tank already plumbed with 3 fuel lines (fill-up, carburetor and tank pressure) and wrapped in foam.
Servo mounting holes already cut out and notched so wires can get by.
Velcro straps installed to hold receiver/battery.
I can go on and on, but check it out for yourself at [link=http://www.pacaeromodel.com]Pacific Aeromodels[/link]

Is there a link to Pacific Models?

I am also looking at an EXTRA 330 ARF as well..... What to you think?

RE: Edge or Cap
 

The Extra is the most forgiving plane of the ones you are looking at (my opinion). If this is your 1st scale type acrobatic plane I would take a good look at one. A small Cap can be a handful. Never had a small Edge but love My 27%.
