I have a good wing, any sugestions?

Last year I made a deal with a friend: I swaped a nice OS.25FP for a plane that gave me all kinds of headaches:

It was a porker (43 ounces without engine or tank), the controls were all wrong (more flap than elevator) and unacessable. The only thing good about it was the wing. It's all straight, and a tad heavy, but not too much.

Span = 55"
Area - + or - 580 sq."
Root chord - 10"
Tip chord 8 "
Thicknes of root airfoil - 2"
Highest point at root airfoil: <= 30%

What can I do with this nice wing?

If I build a ship I have 3 engines that could power it:

OS.25VF, with tuned pipe
Magnum GP.40 with the ports raised (runs VERY sweetly, but lacks ponies) OS.32F (very powerful!)
CB .46 stunt (the most powerful)

Ion (open to sugestions) Muniz

Ion,

Fit triple booms to rear of wing. Fabricate huge stabilator. Hinge to booms.

Attach stubby motor mount. Install bladder tube by simply stretching the thing over top of wing.

Mount the CB 46.

Have fun with one of the world's largest Combat planes.

I'd just build a fuselage for it and use it myself, but then again I am no super-duper stunt ace.

Ion,

I know the feeling. I have the wing and stab from last year's plane. Fuse broke in mid flight and was way too heavy anyway. So the wing and stab/elevator sit on the shelf. Someday, I'll build a new fuse for them and we'll see how it would have flown many ounces lighter.

Someday...

Too many other porject in mind right now.

I have the wing from my '96 NATS plane just sitting, getting dusty. I should build a fuselage for it, it is in almost perfect shape!
