I learned to fly last year with a Hobbico Hobbistar 60 Mk III select - an RTF. This spring while I was flying I dumb-thumbed it into a tree. I was lucky enough to get it back, and just the wing was damaged.
The starboard wing took a hit on the leading edge and cracked near the root. The port wing left its leading edge and tip in the top of the tree.
A replacement wing is a reasonable $90. I decided to rebuild it myself for the experience and to save money*. The purpose of this thread is to follow my progress.
*Ha!
