Just last night I was online looking for Dave Patricks website and realized he is no longer in business, that's too bad because he designed and made some really great airplanes including this edge.
Dave Patrick is Canadian born and used to fly at our club when he was a teen, in fact the guy who taught him to fly still flies with us and a friend of mine. Dave went on to win the Pattern Championships more than once I think and had bought over Carl Goldberg Products.
I think what killed his business is when the era of 3D flying came into being and the market was flooded with 3D airplanes, none of which he was manufacturing at the time. The Edge would have been a half decent 3D airplane but with introduction of the Extreme Flight first generation YAK 54, they stole the 3D market along with Great Planes Patty Wagstaff Extra 300L
So as striker said Earlier in the thread He went out of bussiness and so this plane is just like all the other Dicontinued planes out there You just have to do the best you can with what you have and be inovative in setting it up. Im still gathering Parts for mine have to get control horns and still need to repair the firewall and get servos Ect
But its all about money a little here and a little there and eventually i'llhave all the screws and bolts and peices i need to assemble it. But i watch this thread just in case someone out there may have a manual or Some pictures they post of there setup of this plane. Some photos of peoples setup on this plane would do alot to help others whom have this plane. When i do finally get all my gear for it. and set it up i'll post pictures of my setup so others can use them as a refrence.
Best of luck with your repairs.
