Also, it looks like the Tower Hobbies wing is rubber banded on whereas the Eagle wing could have been a bolt on, in which case you would need to make some mods. Other than that, I would be concerned whether or not the aileron linkage at the trailing edge of the wing will fit OK into the Eagle fuselage without interference.
The original wings on both planes are rubber banded and have the single aileron servo in the
middle of the wing.

I am NEVER buying a used plane again!

When I started to try to replace the junk micro servos I discovered that the ailerons are glued
way too tight to the wing and have very limited movement.

The tower wing will be tried, I have $25 in tower credit and the wing is $40.
