Many changes on the V3! Besides the two piece wings which can be removed for transport or permanently glued onto the fuse, the fuse now has a fiberglass tube internal along with balsa sheeting which provides a super strong and rigid fuselage. The wing has some improvements like slightly thinner airfoil. Also the tail control surfaces are enlarged over previous versions but the elevator counterbalances are ommitted so you won't break them off!

ETA is hard to say as I still have no hard evidence of the shipping status. Only verbal that the container has left China. Typically I would expect product in hand 4 weeks from that point.
