Unknown Aluminum Wing?

Post by **dubplatestyle** » Wed Jan 29, 2014 3:58 pm

When I first spotted this I thought it might have been manufactured by Thorp. Manufacturing, but after closer inspection, I'm thinking it's homemade.

Considering it fit the wing tubes on a RC10 perfectly, I thought it would be a great way to illustrate how large it is! hahaha

I'm assuming it was originally built for a 'sprint' conversion, does anyone know which one utilized RC10 wing tubes?

Yeah, the tabs holding the wing wire are a dead giveaway.

While we're on the subject of homemade wings, here's something I whipped up for my stepson's RC10 utilizing the 'old' wing mounts.

As you can see, it's sort of a 'Dirt Burners' clone.
