Edge 540 Scale
I need help, and can't seem to find it.
I am getting ready to build a rather large Edge 540 aerobatic airplane, and am looking for some specific photos of the cockpit, close up of the disc brakes etc.
I allready have two packs of Bob Banka walkarounds, but its not enough..
I wan't to make this as scale as I possibly can.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

You might try contacting Zivko. The manufacturer of the plane. Or, you may be able to get ahold of Kirby Chambliss, the champion pilot. He may have a website.
Hope this helps.

Your best bet will probably be someone who owns one, wish I knew you were lookin for this info I got up close and personal to a bunch of edges at the WAC in Lakeland.
Try

Actually Call Zivko if you haven't they never respond via email.
Ide even try contacting Kirby someone in his staff should help you out, just let them know what your doing and usually they are glad to help.

Yep, It's unbelievable to think that a plane as huge as this edge can weigh so little. Lets keep on talking about it & I will wind up filing for divorce real soon, Got to get one.

Yeah, Im waiting for Rick to get me the video from the prototypes flights so I can put them on the page. At the weight of the 3D Version the 3W 200 would be ample power.
