I have 2 edges, Carden and Aerotech- which to fly?
Hi, I have 1 DA100 and a 35% Carden edge and a 35% Aerotech edge. If anyone has flown both, which do I set up now and which do I use as a back-up. Or is one so much better I should just sell one off? Then aerotech has never flown, ever. I got the carden from DSP already built. I know which way I'm leaning, just wanted some advice.

Both aircraft are awesome. I have flown the 42% and 35% AeroTech Edge I am currently building a 37%. I have also flown many Cardens. personally I prefer AeroTech. I can imagine if you got your carden from DSP then you have a lot inventsted in it. I would keep both.

Do you have any pics of them? Fly The AeroTech for a while save the pennies and fit out the Carden with everything but the engine. Then swap the engine after a season or so and fly the Carden.

Aerosheldon,
I hope you dont mind.
Here some shots of the plane we are talking about.
DSP does oustanding work!
They are doing a 35% Carden 330 for me

Why not put several flights on both and determine which you like the best. The opinion of others should take second place to your own opinion.

I have a PW Extra with the red and white color scheme and I like it. I am partical to purple even though it is difficult to see. Wait for a cloudy day and see which you are able to see better in the air.

I think that is good advice, then I'll know which should be primary. I have a few pics in my photo gallery if you want to see them.

The fun part is that it will take you about 6 gallons each just to get them dialed in... THat's 12 gallons of flying to just find out which one you like best 
I really enjoy my AeroTech 35% Edge. Great bird! But the Carden is tops also. Such a hard decision!!!!
I tell you what, send the Carden to me and I will give you a good evaluation maybe by next August or so....

Hes got the AeroTech up for sale in the Market Section, just because of the covering schemes you made the right choice on which to keep. I love AeroTechs but that chekcker on the wing just looks bad.
