Yah!  I know quite well that the Klingberg "Fling Thing" is one of the last 
Mohicans of the RCHLG oldies--1994; just goes to show how fast things have 
changed.  I felt sorry for my ole'hobby shop man and took it off his shelf 
to help him out.

Any idea what the airfoil on it is!!??  It ain't thin--Eppler 205 
!!??  With two spars on the leading edge it looks like a well turbulated 
wing in addition to having two dihedral breaks after the center break for a 
neat looking wing.  I would be considering dropping the tip down and 
building it as a DHL--and adding a sub rudder.

Now another alternative would be to unload it to one of you collectors out 
there--I couldn't be adverse to that; I do have other projects on hand :-) 
!!  However, I do like to build--you know birds with ribs and spars that 
emerge from clouds of balsa dust with see through wings . . . :-)
