The next project I do is going to be a wingeron. I've been infatuated with wingerons ever since Harley published the Orca way back when. I plan to push my own buildings skills envelope on this one, because I will be giving vacuum bagging a try for the first time. The plane isn't even started

[RCSE] Harley, Gordy, RDS and molded wings

. Now if someone who had the moxy and equipment and was willing to offer a set of Genie wings I gotta believe there is a market out there. I would be interested in a good set of wings like this myself. I have the equipment, but don't have the time.. I would probably end up building a Mantis
