RE: Complete Restore Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just a few questions - is the wing foam or covered balsa? It looks like the fuse is fiberglas. It can be rebuilt, but if you are new to RC, I suggest that you get a new or better plane that is in better shape. With a 55" WS, this plane should be powered by at least a .46 2 stroke engine (espeically if has a fiberglas fuse). I would check with a local club and get someone to take a look at it before you start trying to fix it. At least you got soem good landing gear and maybe a servicable servo.
