ParkZone 4-Channel Ultra-Micro Sneak Peek
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kl8eQ4x6keQ
For quite a while, folks have been asking us if and when ParkZone will be releasing a 4-channel ultra-micro system. This isn't an announcement for a specific product, but we want people to know that we're working in this direction.
Since this isn't a product announcement, don't bother asking local hobby shops about this. They don't have any information and won't for quite a while. And don't expect me to give up much info at this point, except that our prototypes are flying well, and they're flying on DSM2.

RE: ParkZone 4-Channel Ultra-Micro Sneak Peek
These are definitely not the ParkZone offerings. They run on a different 2.4 system. The Cherokee is a four channel, but from all reports it is not very acrobatic (no rolls) and the ailerons are not very effective. I own the Edge, and it is fairly acrobatic (It will roll, but still loses a fair amount of height in doing so) but it is not four channel. Instead it has ailerons and elevatorno rudder. I think this will be something straight from ParkZone's drawing board. It is the most acrobatic RTF micro I have seen to date. I really look forward to what ParkZone comes up with. I have been very pleased with their Vapor and Blade mCX, which fly great and are durable.

Tokteacher, how do you like the Edge? I was thinking about ordering one because i wanted something faster than the Cessna I have now. The advertising says is has a bigger motor than the other planes.

Look at the links i posted above. By the way, if anyone knows a US company that sells the Edge, please let me know. The only thing I can find on Ebay or on the net comes from the UK or Asia and it costs about $200 with shipping.

It will be 1s,it is not a 3d plane,(also dave has said that a 3d is not planned)it is a pattern plane.

The plane should be up on the horizon website tomorrow,and if you go to E-Fest tomorrow you will see it fly.
