Default RE: Seeker Kits

The Viper wing could be made to work on a Seeker but the airfoil is quite a bit different. You would have to shim / pot the fuselage to match the wing. The Viper wing is also a bit heavy. Now if you want to use a Viper wing, check out the white one ..... it is $20 cheaper than the red one from Tower.

Much of the excess weight comes from the heavy solid balsa wingtips. If you remove them and hollow them, you can lose an ounce or two. With a little work and recovering, these can be pretty nice wings.
