I had a fellow give me 1/2 a wing and a busted fuselage and I rebuilt it. First was taking of the covering that he applied with it seemed to be a thick paint of some sort and all the repairs from previous crashes. Made anew wing half fixed the fuse and installed a Super Tigre 2500 with 7d carb. This thing recovered with monocoat is still really heavy and I really do not want to know how heavy. It flies really great. t slow lands at a crawl and is a very responsive ship

I think a new build that is light on the glue but reinforced on the fuse sides just aft of the trailing edge will fly perfect with a 2300 to a 3000 and people are giving them away as they had a bad carb. You van now buy a barrel made in china that will fix the carb and it is $15 do if you look on ebay a tigre can be had for as little as $50 and I have 8 of them all were smashed and bent cranks (easy fix) and not one cost me over $30 and I got one with a full C@H ignition conversion for $50 with the ignition and folks that is a cheap way to fly
