Pilot-RC already surprised everyone with a new level of precision with our extremely popular ExtraNG and Slick. We have now taken all these great features and incorporated them into our new EDGE V3.

The Pilot-RC EDGE 540 V3, in addition to looking great, offers color schemes designed by legendary Italian designer Mirco Pecorari at Aircraft Studio Design (01 color scheme) and Ryu Sintuphrom (02 color scheme). Both are great designs and look great as usual.

Pilot-RC Edge 540 V3 50-60cc Designed by the experienced design team of Pilot-RC with expertise in RC airframes, the Edge 540 V3 boasts the modern aesthetics of a full-size V3 EDGE, offering outstanding performance capabilities. The design is fully based on the Edge 540 V3, which features a unique fuselage back design and one of the best Edge 540 shapes ever. It is not only modern-looking but also offers great aerodynamics in the sky, ensuring an authentic experience. The Edge 540 V3 50-60cc is a true and high-performing design for anyone who has an old 50cc-60cc single and excels in a variety of flying styles, similar to a 120cc size.
