Extreme Flight Edge 540T EXP

All NEW Extreme Flight Edge 540T EXP Red Blue (Yellow Black to order)

Loosely based on our favorite variant of the Edge, the 2 seat Edge 540T, we have taken numerous liberties with this design to produce an aircraft that is both unique in appearance and flight ability. The designation EXP does not belong to a full scale Edge, but stands for Experimental Progressive. This name was chosen due to the fact that the Edge 540T EXP incorporates several new forward thinking design and aerodynamic concepts. Having spent several months in development, flight testing and refinement, we are very excited about the end result of our quest.

The Edge 540T EXP incorporates carbon fiber and G10 composites into the structure of the airframe, resulting in a lightweight, yet twist free structure capable of handling extreme aerodynamic loads. Carbon and G10 are used in high stress areas such as motor box support, landing gear mounting structure and fuselage longerons to provide enormous strength and durability. A true piece of carbon fiber art, the landing gear is airfoiled and has just enough "give" to cushion those not so perfect landings. The removable wing panels are mounted on a carbon fiber wing tube and are fastened to the fuselage with nylon thumbscrews.

The large canopy (which is retained by a spring loaded hatch latch) has been moved forward to place the tallest portion of the aircraft at the center of gravity, resulting in the best knife edge performance of any aircraft we've flown to date. The airfoiled tail surfaces are built using a unique geodetic construction technique which allows the use of less material while creating a structure that is superior in strength and rigidity to typical ARF construction methods. All control surfaces are pushrod driven with short linkages and use ball links for slop free actuation with no binding.

Optional Side Force Generators are included and add to the already generous side area, increasing yaw axis authority and adding stability in all angles of sideslip. Expertly painted fiberglass cowl and wheel pants and 2 gorgeous high visibility Ultracote color schemes add the finishing touches and make this an airplane that you will be proud to show up at the flying field with. The combination of these unique elements add up to an aircraft that pushes the boundaries of modern aerobatic flight.
