Another nice 3Ch Trainer. Rudder/Elevator Control. The Wingo builds in about
2 - 3 hours. This plane flies so nice and true. Glides forever. The stock wingo
comes direct drive with a Zagi Prop. This combo is ok but if you really want some
power and a higher rate of climb, i would suggest you get the Gearbox & Prop combo!
The only fault i have seen with the wingo is in anything other than a perfect landing
the nose will brake! Expoxy will fix it, but it will start to look ugly really fast!
