I just got my first BIG plane today, a 35% aerotech edge 540t, from a very nice person who didn't want to build it. Does anybody have access to possibly an electronic copy of the manual, as I have never built one from sticks. Thanks!

BAyres, if anything call john at aerotech and see if he can get you a copy of the instructions. to my knowledge there isnt any. i have built 3 of his kits now and my extra and edge (on FG now, look for the build thread) have been built with no instructions. looking off the plans and where everything tabs together its fairly easy. i should be getting back on this plane shortly if youd like to follow along. if you have any questions or problems send me a pm, ill be glad to help out.

Matt, Thanks for your offer. I will be following along, and I did contact John, and he sent me an electronic copy. It's pretty basic, so we will see. With the wind like it is here this weekend in Vegas, I need to get this plane done so I can fly. Bobby |
