JimKim and Nitro to burn....
I am planning on flying mine in the USRA war-bird class of pylon racers I sure hope the wing is stout. From discussion at Toledo I was assured that the wings would hold up.

Also I was wanting to confirm the scaleness of the full size plane. It is Rudy Frasca's plane at Frasca field only a few miles away from the TF Hq. When I went to their website I was shocked to learn the prototype is in fact shinny and that the plane as supplied is flat so once I get the stickers on I will need to paint it with a gloss cote of paint. The first time I guess that the shinny Mono Cote would have been the better choice in covering.
