Got it at an auction the other day. Looks like a Wagstaff Extra, but I cannot find the manufacturer for the life of me. It is not the Great Planes kit, or the World Models ARF. Servo locations don't match up in either manual.
Wing span is 64 1/2". Trim colors and scheme matches another Wagstaff Extra I saw, but I haven't seen another like it in my searches, so it might not even be a Wagstaff.
Wing is epoxied together and glassed.
The foamy glue on the stringers across the top of the fuse lead me to believe it might be a kit, but someone else mentioned it could be ARF hot glue or something.
The engine mounts are so close together they won't accept a 46AX I have laying around, so those need to be spaced out.
Thanks for any help! I'm getting a little desperate trying to figure this out.

I believe it is an ICS model. I have one just like it except for the paint job. ICS was bought by Hanger 9 in the 70's. So your plane is an older one but still a great flier. Here is a picture of mine. The only difference is the one I have is the 72 inch wingspan model they produced.
