Hangar 9’s NEW Edge 540 33% ARF
A Giant-Scale 3D Performer
Hangar 9® follows up the enormously successful giant-scale Extra 330S with another 33% scale aerobatic model with the same high quality and superior design. The Edge 540 is a favorite among modelers because of its superior 3D ability, particularly for its ease in hovering and torque rolling. Hangar 9’s high-energy Edge 540 33% ARF is a terrific precision and 3D airplane, perfect for the giant-scale enthusiast looking for the next big thing in the category.
Designed by TOC competitor Mike McConville, the new Edge 540 is constructed from durable, lightweight balsa and plywood, covered in genuine UltraCote® for an expert look, and includes a two-piece wing and stab that ensures convenient storage and easy transport to the flying field. The all new Hangar 9 corban fiber landing gear reduces weight even more, and is included.
Most importantly, the Edge 540 is a superior aerobatic performer, flying extremely well in both sequence and 3D-style aerobatics. It flies and holds lines impressively, maintains a great presentation in flight, and snaps and shows a definite pitch break in all snap entries. It also tracks well, even in extreme crosswind conditions. 3D maneuvers are no problem for the Edge either. Using a Zenoah® GT80, it performed torque rolls with ease, as well as harriers, wells, parachutes, and any 3D ticks you can throw at it.
We doubt any giant-scale aerobatic customer will be able to resist the charms and capabilities of this exceptional 3D performer. Convenient hardware package also available.
