Phoenix Model EDGE 540 V3 67'' ARF V2 Airplane - PH251

Edge 540 V3 V2: The Thrill Machine for Demanding Pilots

The Edge 540 is world-renowned for its straight leading edge, giving it unique aerobatic capabilities, especially exceptional stability during high angle of attack maneuvers. Phoenix Model has taken this legend and created an even more refined V2 version, combining lightness and rigidity.

Reinforced Composite Construction

Beneath its high-quality polyester covering, the Edge 540 V3 features a balsa and plywood structure, laser-cut and reinforced with composite materials. The main landing gear and tail wheel are made of carbon fiber, as is the included spinner, ensuring unmatched durability during landings and weight reduction where it matters most.

Quick Assembly: Smart Lock System

Because time at the field is precious, Phoenix Model has integrated its Smart Lock system for the wings. Assembly takes just seconds and requires no tools. The large removable canopy provides full access to the electronics and makes battery changes much easier for electric power enthusiasts.

Gas or Electric Versatility

The ARF kit is designed to accept both types of power systems. The fiberglass cowling and wheel pants are factory-painted, offering a finish worthy of a competition model.

The highlights of this V2 version:

• Extreme 3D Agility: Ideal for Harriers, Torque Rolls, and "Xtreme Aerobatics" flying.

• Included Carbon Components: Main landing gear, tail wheel, and 80 mm spinner.

• Quick-Release Wings: Tool-free Smart Lock system.

• Premium Hardware: Ball link pushrods and high-quality hardware included.

Pilot’s Opinion

"The Edge 540 is without doubt the most rewarding aerobatic plane. Its unique wing geometry makes it very predictable during stalls, making it a top choice for learning and perfecting hovering. On this 1.70 m version, I recommend a DLE-20RA engine: it's the perfect combo for explosive power and instant throttle response out of maneuvers."
