Does anybody know the specs on the 818R wing? I think its an APR wing but what model is it and how wide is it? Does the chassis have special mounts or how does it mount? Pics?

66.375" wide, includes mounts to the body only, not the frame..

The 818R had frame mounted wing mounts

I asked FFR about this, they currently do not have chassis mounts for the wing as an option.

Based on Wayne's observation, I presume this means that the S has body mounts, while the R's wing is chassis-mounted: correct?

Thanks,

No the S never had a wing - yet
You have to mount it to the frame, not the fiberglass. The load is too great at speed
