Midwest Citabria kit question
Does the Midwest Citabria have a 2 piece wing?
If you have experience with the kit and flying it how did you find it?

RE: Midwest Citabria kit question
Bob,
It is built as a one piece wing. Very nice kit and goes together fast, just don't mount the servo's as they say to in the manual, kinda akward that way. Got an OS .91 FS with an APC 15/6, covered in fabric in mine and love the way it flies! One of my favorite planes to take to the field, it's mild or wild!

I flew one for over three years with a Saito 91 and loved it. Get Stans Fiberglass cowl and wheel pants....and yes, mount the aileron servos the correct way, not the way they show it! My servos are still in the wing (where ever it is!). Also, replace the balsa stringers that run along the bottom of the fuselage with spruce. I broke mine many times picking up the plane!
