  • Sale -11% SKYWING 116" Edge 540 - Yellow

Description

The Skywing 116" Edge 540 represents the latest evolution in giant scale aerobatic aircraft, purpose-built for today’s demanding RC pilots. Featuring next generation lightweight construction and exclusive Skywing patented quick-assembly systems, this model offers unmatched precision, convenience, and value.

With pre-hinged and pre-sealed control surfaces, a carbon fibre landing gear and tailwheel assembly, and a detailed factory-assembled canopy, setup time is dramatically reduced — meaning more time in the air and less time in the workshop.
