  • As with all introductions it is always best to find a native variety and not import a new mistake. Mosquitoes, cane toads, wood beetles and hundreds more that have become a plague to indigenous creatures are sad realities. We hope people are responsible enough to stop causing harm to their environment with short sighted actions.  We promote the restoration of Natural habitat not the introduction of new species. Please do not introduce anything into a living system until proven a benefit. LMF

  • It is so incredibly beautiful! Nice wing! Respect to your effort to help the nature.

    Best regards.

  • Thanks ! Lots of effort to make it. Worth it when in the air.

  • That was a good time in the glades.Looks like mike campbells boy out there with the revolution wing.I have the same yellow wing.Who did the paint job?And does it cut the hrs? or make it heavier?Do the tales cause alot of drag or breaking situations?

  • Yes it was. I painted it. Actually improved hours porosity.

    heavier by a few pounds with extra material. Must increase attack to get off ground. Other than that there is a bit of drag but the wing is still great.
