SQS EP Edge 50 Red Bull Chambliss Kyosho 10065CHB

BK SQS EP Edge 540 Red Bull Chambliss 10065CHB Air racing, launched by the energy drink manufacturer Red Bull, is a comparatively new discipline in aviation sports. Since 2003, the world's best pilots have been competing in several air races every year. The goal of air racing is to fly a course set with inflatable air gates as quickly as possible while correctly executing the prescribed maneuvers. Air Gates are 20 meter high pylons, which are placed at a distance of 10 to 14 meters from each other. The competitors start immediately behind each other. Penalty seconds are awarded or points deducted for touching pylons and for mistakes during the maneuvers.

The original EDGE 540 is successfully used in the Red Bull Airrace series. The flight characteristics of the KYOSHO EDGE 540 are in no way inferior to the original. Due to the fast response and the absolutely neutral flight characteristics, the EDGE 540 is perfect for the Red Bull Airrace series.

The flight characteristics of the KYOSHO EDGE 540 can be seen and are in no way inferior to the original. The predictable, good-natured behavior and symmetry give the EDGE 540 the same flight characteristics on the inverted flight as in the normal flight attitude. The extremely high lift plays an important role especially in the slow flight phase.

The model is built using lightweight balsa plywood construction. The wing halves in balsa rib lightweight construction has a plug and are attached to the side of the fuselage. All components are weight-optimized and impress with their precise manufacturing quality. The fuselage is built in a particularly light lattice construction. All parts are covered with multicolored foil, the engine cowling and the wheel fairings made of GRP are ready painted.

The aileron servos are each located directly in the wing, so that the rudders are hinged in the shortest possible way.

Electric version
The electric version has a special battery mount made of plywood for secure mounting of the LiPo battery. For mounting the motor, a CNC-machined mount made of aluminum is included, which allows the mounting of all commercially available outrunner motors. The rudder is hinged via cables, which allows for particularly backlash-free control. The elevators are hinged in the classic way via a Y-rod.

In the air, the Edge 540 impresses with its excellent flight characteristics and unmistakable appearance. Depending on the motorization, all conceivable flight maneuvers can be performed with the model. At the same time, the model goes completely neutral through all figures and always gives the pilot a precise feeling of control.
