Default Edge 540T Kits

Does anyone know where I can find a .60 size Edge 540T kit. So far I have only seen ARFs from Aeroworks and Lanier.

Try D&L Designs, they have a 60" Edge kit. I am building one now. A very nice kit with excellent wood and laser cut parts, fiberglass cowl and pants. No hardware but I usually toss out most hardware in a kit anyway.

What engine will you be using in the plane?

I can get a Saito 91 in the cowl without cuting a hole for the head so that is my first choice. I have been eyeballing the Saito 100 but I think it will be a little too tall and will have to have a hole in the cowl.

The plans call for a 60 size four stroke but I don't think that it would be enough motor.

Default Thanks for all your help

I have an OS 91FX sitting here waiting for a home. I think it will go into the Edge 540T

I just looked at the plans and they call for a 45 to 61 two stroke so the 91FX should have plenty of power.

I don't see where a 45 motor would near enough.

The box says it should weigh 6 3/4 to 7 1/2 lbs, I have the wing 90% done and the fuse 75% done with the tail feathers on and six of the seven servos and mine weighs 2 lbs 7 oz so far. I still have 2lbs of sanding to do yet.
