I kind of mis-understood, I think it was the name of your thread that through me, "First Time Builder Needs Advice". I though you were talking about a kit but all I'm finding for this Tipsy by Graupner is a foam ARF/RTF type of thing with a pusher prop. Is this the right one? If so, while these little electrics really aren't my cup of tea, if I was going to have one I think I would first off change out the motor & esc for a brushless power system. Then as for re-inforcing the wing, I think I would probably try some small gauge carbon fiber rods first. It is very strong, yet very light weight. Good luck!
