I believe you're looking for "Takeapart" hardware, to make a model with removable wings or two piece fuselage?
Controline Central is supposed to have these parts available in their "Tom Morris" hardware. I looked, but didn't find it. Contact Jim Snelson by email. Here's the website:  http://www.clcentral.com/default.asp

Bill,

If you need really small parts then use the Tom Morris system. If you just need the wing and tail off, then use the inexpensive, KIS system we use on all our R/C planes.

Please see the Open section on this forum under:  "Tom Morris take apart system". I think it is about 20 subjects down? I have posted a very brief How To there.

If you can, go to an R/C flying site and look at any one of their planes. It is very KIS. :-)

If you want a take-a-part profile CL plane, then contact Eric at RMS. he has a perfect, very KIS system built into his latest profile plane.

Steve, as you know, most of my models are The break apart variety which then become pull apart. This is a true statement! HB~> HB~> HB~> HB~> HB~>
