Lots of parts but missing lots too, it has been kicked around alot and hardware and who knows what will have to be found, bought or made. The biggest thing missing is the construction manuals and parts/inventory information. Does anyone out there have the manuals I could get a copy of? Any other help would be great. Thanks George George, I built an early kit and fly it regularly (over 750 hrs). I did beef up the wing and tested same to 7.5 gs. I will be happy to share what knowledge I have with you. Tom Riley
George and Tom, I'd be glad to share with you my experience and modifications I've made since I've been flying my Spirit since 95'. You'll definitely want to add quick control connectors and add the replacement Matco wheel brake assembly that was provided with the original kits.
Regards, Paul
