SIG Edge 540T ARF

he SIG 33% Edge 540T ARF likely represents the pinnacle of true performance and quality in a dedicated, all-out giant scale aerobatic aircraft. Strong words? You bet, but the proof is in the flying. Powered with 5.8 up to 6.8 in³ gas engines, such as the super powerful F.P.E. 6.8 in³ twin-cylinder engine, the SIG Edge 540T will blow you away with its radical, yet silky smooth flight envelope.

CAD designed and refined, the development of this superb model aircraft has taken place over a long period of time to ensure that it combines the strength, performance and quality demands that are placed on giant scale aerobatic aircraft. The aircraft ply and balsa airframe is completely laser-cut and hand assembled by a small, highly trained group of specialists - no "cookie cutter" assembly here. Each of the hand assembled components is expertly covered with SIG AeroKote.
The spectacular color scheme is not just beautiful; it is functional in providing highly visible top and bottom reference in flight. To ease transport the Edge 540T has a 2-piece removable wing and 2-piece removable stabilizer. SIG fully understands that giant scale aerobatic pilots prefer their own personal choice of wheels, spinners, fuel tanks and certain highly specialized hardware items, so these are not included in the kit - why pay for what you don't want or need. The fully illustrated and highly detailed Assembly Manual provides well thought out and practical factory recommendations for most of these specialized items. Included are the canopy, fiberglass cowl, fiberglass wheel pants and aluminum landing gear.
