Last Sunday Mark had his new 3D printed Edge 540 at Tharwa for its maiden flight. This model is interesting for its size – 1.6M wingspan, all 3D printed construction and direct connect servos (no pushrods).
I apologise for the poor photo quality in advance 🙁
From a spectator’s perspective the maiden flight went extremely well (Mark may have something to add on this). Power comes from 6S 4000 mah (I think) batteries. Mark expects 6-8 minute flights.
I’ve also attached some specs that Mark had available.
If you want to learn more about Mark’s model I’m sure he would be happy to talk about his experiences. You can contact him through the club website members directory (login required).
