Apologies for my misinfo.
I clicked onto one line lower when searching the LAA Tads alphabetically & was seduced by the 'Euro... prefix.
They are two different a/c types.

BTW. I don't think the Eurostar wings come off for storage. Mind you detachable wings are mostly a pain for rig & derig time. Often too heavy or awkward to do single handed.
As said above the Reality Escapade is one of the goodies and with 912 power for reasonable air speed, mostly you save more time on rigging, which will pay back any faster flying speed for an alternative fast if a clumsy deriggable.

Certainly the Europa we had here for a few months was a pig to rig & is now relocated at a strip with rigged hangarage.
