Pilot Edge 540 V3 67in RED / WHITE / BLACK (01) PIL849
Pilot-RC surprised everyone with a new level of precision in their extremely popular Extra-NG and Slick. We have now taken all these great features and grown them into the new EDGE V3.
The Pilot-RC EDGE 540 V3 is available in two colour schemes. The 01 scheme was designed by legendary Italian designer Mirco Pecorari at Aircraft Studio Design and Ryu Sintuphrom's signature 02 colour scheme.
Pilot-RC Edge-540 V3 was designed and developed by the highly experienced design team of Pilot-RC. The Edge 540 V3 has the modern aesthetics of a full-size V3 Edge-540.
The Edge-540 V3 67" is a game changer, outstanding in a variety of flying styles. A friendly 3D aircraft that makes it easy to get low and slow with the biggest wing area and lowest wing load compared to other Pilot-RC 67in aircraft, so wherever you are in the 3D style, high energy XA, or precision flying, the Edge-540 V3's impressive characteristics will meet every RC pilot's expectations.
