ok ok, why? well / I ran off the end of the runway after bouncing and catching a little breeze. Once it was back on the ground I hit a tree. The right wing nearly broke completely knocking out 3 rib sections. Now...........after studying the repair issue , I have decided to conceder clipping both wings to total 60'' span. ( from currant 72" ) I tried the mod on REAL FRIGHT and it flys. So they have clipped CUBS dont they? Anyone want to hazard a quess as to how this might turn out????? ( Or want to wait and let me tell you later!! )

thanks , Bill

The wingspan on the GP Spacewalker is actually 79" not 72". Taking off about 6" will probably make it easier to land. I used to think I needed a hammer to get mine to finally stop flying and sit on the ground. I've clipped the wings on other floaters and liked the results, but I think you need to use a more conservative approach - try 6" before going 12". It's easier to cut some more off later than to cut some back on. Good luck on your effort. Let us know how it works out.

Well, I studied the two pieces of the broken right wing, nothing but the servo cable connecting the pieces. Really ugly. How would I ever replace the spars, ribs, leading edge, trailing edge,all those panels between ribs.....in correct position and sturdy. After reading a couple repair reviews I though, well someone built this thing to begin with, I should be able to piece broken parts together and copy them and build it again!! I bought the materials and had at it. After a couple of days I was pretty impressed with myself! ( pat pat ) The thing is almost ready to recover an I really enjoyed making the repair!!!!!!!!! AM I SICK?? I felt like my orthopedic surgeon when he rebuilt my shatter knee ( another story ). Yes ,the Dr. went into surgery and about 3 days later REPAIRED!!!!! So for any others facing what seems like the end of the line for your crashed plane. If I can do it , anyone who has ever built a plane can. Probably even if you have not build before. Same thing only with out the plans or pre cut parts. Just add a little creative engineering.

GOOD LUCK and thanks to all

I clipped a floater like a Spacewalker and the mod made a new plane out of it.
It became much more fun and predictable to fly, easier landings and better aerobatics.
Good luck.

Check GP's clearance items and see if there is a wing on that listing. They quite often have wings and fuselages for their planes listed at good prices. Sometimes these items are listed in their sale flyers.
Good luck
