I just noticed that Tower is showing a new 50" Edge 540T aerobat ARF. It is listed as being one of the "E Performance Series. No video yet but I small picture is shown. Here is the Tower Press Release:

From the numbers it looks like it could be a really good flyer.

Airfoiled control surfaces on an airplane of this size is a nice touch.

Is this some of your handy work George??

If George put his magic touch on it, you just KNOW it is gonna be REALLY great

Should look pretty capable there.

shes deffinately a looker, the numbers look good, looks like they grabbed a bunch of the current market trends in this one as well.

Well, It's about time!!!!

i didnt see a hatch latch. thats one thing i really like about the 3dhs planes. price is right especially with the tower discounts and free shipping for memebers

The canopy hatch is kept on with magnets. Clean, light and simple.

Have you flown a 3DH plane with a hatch latch on? It has magnets too, but once you move to a hatch latch, there's no going back .

I have not.
If the magents do the job...I do not see a need for a redundant latch.

g rod, are we gonna see a reactor this size? i luv my 6s reactor. a 4s reactor would be sweet

hello-
There is a better chance of seeing a 10-12s Reactor first.............
