Thanx, t_pred

I haven't seen any SPA3D tree trimming videos yet, but here's a link to some tree trimming videos of my Big McDDD......which is similar to the SPA3D.

Hi Gordo!
Good to hear from you!
I sure wish you could have made it to the MoProBro. It was a blast!

Man was I bummin! But I got to Nashville, which I'm sure you heard all about. That was awsome.

Bizaro Bill and I have been watching your vids and talking about it. You will have to show us some of how you do it. We laughed our buts off, especially since you were in the dark!

Do you have stiffeners in your wing? And if so, what, where and how many?

Thanks

Gordo

Yes, on the Big McDDD in the tree trimming videos, the wing is a SPA3D wing, complete with the two 5/32" wire spars. Except both wing spars were shortened to 16", which left a 20" piece to make a 5/32" wire landing gear for that plane, and one other.

Here's what the plane looked like after the tree trimming fun ended:
