I'm ordering an LT40 wing kit to replace the wing on my LT40 ARF ( it failed when a tree came out of nowhere, reached up and grabbed it!), but I'm wondering, does anyone know if the LT40 wing kit comes with the plans/instructions or do I have to buy those too?
Thanks for the info!

I usually scratch build all my birds. I bought my first ARF a few weeks ago, and was surprised to find out that they don't usually include plans. It's good business not to. If you break it, you have to buy another fuse, wing, etc. from them. But, assuming the wing was not shredded into toothpicks, you could easily draw up a set of plans from the leftovers.

Unfortunately, I was able to recover only about 3/4 of one wing (the other bits are still impaled on a tree branch!), so I'd be doing a bit of guessing when it came to the wing centre section. I don't mind guessing, but I'd hate to guess wrong and end up really making a mistrake!

Sorry, maybe I wasn't quite clear enough...I was planning on buying the wing kit (Not the ARF replacement wing set) and taking some of the dihedral out.....
