Default 1/3 scale Spacewalker

Need a little help ID'ing the make of a plane I just bought over the weekend. It's a Spacewalker of approximately 1/3rd scale, as the wingspan is 112". It's not the Sig kit as far as I can tell, since the wingspan is too large and the attachment method is totally different. This model uses plug-in wings like the typical CAP/Extra/Yak of today, but without the wing tube. wings are supported with rigging cables.

Anyone have any idea of the designer or kit manufacturer?

I'll post some pics this evening.

Could be a scratch built version.

Like mrbigg said, probably scratch built.  I don't recall ever seeing one in kit form that large other than the Sig kit.  RC Modeler had a set of plans published in 1988 (#1032), but it only had a 91" wingspan.
