Default Help Identify Manufacturer

I just acquired a giant scale ARC airframe. I think it is a Edge 540 with a 104" wingspan. I picked it up in a trade. The previous owner said he bought it as a almost ready to cover kit. He claims a price tag of around $1200.00 Can anyone give me a clue as to to who sells this plane? It is a very nice, super light airframe with a massive cowl. Any help will be appreciated.

You traded someone for a plane that you have no idea what brand it is or what it is worth???

What's so strange about that? I only got it to sell, so I am trying to identify the plane. I am sure someone will want a $1200.00 plane for $400.00, but I need to know who manufactured the plane.

So who made a 35% 540T ARC? Can't have been that many companies that did so.

GSP was a 103" and the construction was a bit different.

If my memory serves me correctly, Aeroworks had an ARC, but I know the kits had foam wings, not sure on the ARC's.(could be wrong) Also, check out that landing gear,,, Looks like it's from an Extra 300,,,

I agree Fiddy. Look at the angle that the wing tube goes into the wing on the wall. That does not look like the angle for an edge wing. It looks more like a 300L. I have no idea about manufacturer though. CA?
