Unless you get real lucky, you would probably be better off just buying a whole kit, it is normally cheaper in the long run then trying to buy a wing kit.

Can't you get a pattern off the wings you have ???? If you have one. Sorry I can't help more. ENJOY !!! RED

I am in the same boat you are..I recently clipped a tree branch with my Avistar and put a hole in my wing tip, in the fuse, and broke my tail off...but after lookin im just going to repair in myself. I just made a new spar from an old on(i just need the leading edge) Towerhobbies has wings...but they are kinda pricy. How bad is the damage?

I bought my replacement wing kit on ebay. I then sanded the wing root vertical to remove the dihedral and put a 2" fiberglass reinforcement. It flys so much easier and more acrobatic. It will fly inverted with just a touch of down elevator and rolls are much more axial.
