    Question Mix n' Match

    Hey folks,
    Just looking around at various bits n' pieces and would like to know if this would work OK.

    A model 1 fuse., model 2 wings and a 582.

    Looks like the difference in the wings is just stronger spars and tanks.
    The other difference I see is the tail is higher on the model 2.
    Should the tail of the model 1 be lengthened ? Or would it handle OK if left short ?

    Just curious.
    Thanks,
    RF

    Foxer, I've had the privilege of flying SkySteve's Kitfox after the modifications and it works great. Fun airplane with good handling characteristics. Find yourself a 912 and you'll really be happy.
