You can't buy new kit from factory but you can buy used ones here.

They have 2 kits 4 sale at the moment. They just sold one really cheap guess you bought it. But dont expect more bargin like this in near future.

 

btw I read rumors over the internet that some is going to resurect this kit. I found this information on another page

"In about a week or two I also expect to to be starting a contract of redesigning the structural and manufacturing details of the Berkut in order to prep it for production"

hello berkuters:

:)

[mak790]

were i can buy manuals,videotapes or dvd of the construction of the plane,

Simple answer is you can't buy these stuff and I can tell you even more it's illegal to resell and copy these documents (I believe).

If you really need it try to contact Martin, Emmanuel you can find his email here

He's building Berkut in France. There is at least one Berkut (silver) in UK but I dont have any emails or something.

i know the silver berkut in the magazine customplanes

¿you know another mag like customplanes?

if yes¿can send web adress'?

thank berkuter:D :D

[mak790]

do you know another mag like customplanes?

 

Unfortunatelly i don't know any magazines like customplanes.

 

Anyway if you are Berkut fan but you cant afford kit for 50.000?$ you can build highly modified Long/Open Ez. (like I'm going to do)

With split canopy like this one

and you can build carbon wings and canard like Chris Esselstyn did in his Cozy IV

Everything up to you.

the early wings are made with the foam core . they did make molds for the wings and canard and the latter ones use the molded skins.
