FLYING
We believe the Edge 540T will be one of the finest flying airplanes you will ever fly. The 540T has no bad
habits and very slow speed stall characteristics.
Inverted flight is nearly hands off and knife edge flight takes little or no mixing to remain straight and true.
Remember the Edge is a large aircraft and picks up speed quickly when coming out of split S type
maneuvers or when needing straight downward. (Always throttle back).
If you have followed the assembly manual instructions and have balance your Edge properly, you will be
rewarded with a highly aerobatic, stable and predictable flying airplane.
