I started with D&L plans but I made foam wings and tail surfaces and made the wings bigger than the plans.It has a 84" wingspan

Is that thing the Hindenburg??

Hey Johnny Rebel

I think your Edge would look a lot better if it had wheel pants!!!!!! But I'll bet that even without them it flies better than the other Edges.

Hay John That is not an Edge 540T. Number 1 it doesn't have a shoulder wing. 2 it the leading EDGE of the wing is tapered back.

I actually sold the wheel pants to this guy that had this "pretty" Giles. They just don't look right on Edges.

Johnny,
Looks like a Extra to me.....even the landing gear has a bow in it like the Extra.
And the wings are tapered back like an Extra.

Cub1 Now that is an Edge.

You can't be bringing an Extra here. Extra doesn't even come close to the performance of an Edge.....

Edge's/Extra's, what's the difference? Seen one, seen them all. They all look the same. Rebel's dirigible is just a little more "Special" than others.

It's not what you see.. It is how they fly. Edge is superior. Just ask Kirby.

Is Kirby that frog on the muppets?

Hey Johnny Rebel

Did ya ever wonder why a lot of the Edges actually have the word Edge on the plane? What's up with that? Is it possible they have an identity problem because they don't fly as good as an Extra? Just wondering......

The day an Edge flies better than Extra is the day when "Pigs" fly. Kirby knows all about pigs too.

This is Kirby Champliss's full size Edge 540. Don't see to many Extras is competition anymore. Extra is a great pattern plane but for Freestyle the Edge is the best.....

That is a pretty wild paint job that Kirby has on his Extra. Kind of impossible to reproduce with Monokote though unfortunately.

hey that looks alot like an extra 330.

They all look the same don't they.

I didn't realize that the Extra 230 had aerodynamic counterbalances on the ailerons, i.e. Kirby's shown above. Is this something new or what?

Hey guys I was browsing the net and came across this pic-

Man that is some funny stuff. You guys Rock. My Extra was my trainer, it is long gone now.

Extra 300 funny man...

Is that Kirby?

There are soooooo many things you could write above that one!

Hmmmmmmmm................

Bob

What about this one???

I must say that is damn impressive for a full scale. Did somebody say Freestyle!

Yep and ONLY a sukhoi!
