I have a Lanier stinger 40- The second one. a griend of mine joined the "Up elevator" club with the first one.
I had 2 stinger 60. with an OS 90 fx as power. This has been the best flying airplane I have had in many years.
I have two stinger 120 under construction that will be Ryobi powered. This is to eliminiate the High cost of glow fuel.
I also have A giant Stinger under consturction. this one will be powered by a G 62.
Stingers are not really fast flying because of the thick wing. However they fly very good and are very manuverable. Remember it is pretty close to a mid wing.
The stingers take off well. They are easy to land.
On all of mine I am sheeting the wing solid. I like that better. If you vacuum bag the wing with solid sheeting it will make the wing solid as a rock and I like that feel.
