Tom, My Curtiss has a 98" wing. I'll get me some of the natural solartex on the way. I've also got to order some streamline tubing to replace some that is damaged on the landing strut. I'm going to clean the frame up and make a list of part's I need to order so I can move on this baby. I'm going to replace all the horn's, rod's, servo's and hinges. The original wing struts were made from wood. I would like to make the from some thin wall 1/2" streamline tubing if possible?

On another note: I'm building an animated pilot for this plane. I've already got the stick and servo's built and tested it with my radio and it work's great. Now if I can just figure out how to stuff it in the plane.
Here's a video of a similar animated pilot like the one I'm doing now.
