The thing that caught my eye is this sentence:

"Our newly-developed wing structure allows for a wing span of 21m despite
of a wing section as thin as 13%."

Anyone got any information about what is new about the wing structure?
Anything that might make the surfaces have a low susceptibility to
shrinkage and deformity?

Hi John,
the newly-developed structure means mainly some stronger wing
structure to get the MTOW up to 600kg (or maybe more).
The fuselage, tail and wings are mostly the same from the 26. Only wih
slight changes and with new extension tips for the 21m. These
extension tips are exactly from the ASG-29 from the same molds. This
makes it very easy to create this new ship within a few months. I
expect the first 31 should be ready in March or April, 2009.
