I need more information on the CMPro Swallow EX 90 prior to purchase. Is
there a manual I can download?

If not I have these questions:
1.    Are the wings in two pieces supported by a tube or are they one
piece?
2.    Is there an access hatch on top of fuse?
3.    Any additional info you can provide will be helpful.

When set up correctly this is a fantastic flying model.
The wing is in one piece. There is no upper hatch.
Watch the undercarriage.
The wing has a stub that fits into the former. The undercarriage plat of totally inadequate ply also slots into this former from the other side.
A heavy landing will break this U/C ply upwards. As this happens the former moves forward and the wing drops off. You will need to strengthen the U/C ply by at least .25 inches. Once solid it is great.
There is another weak point in the fuz sides just above the wings. Over here in the UK owners have strengthened the sides either with thin ply or in my case with carbon fibre.
Even though it is called an EX90 the best engine for it is a 120 four stroke. I fitted mine with a Laser 100. It ran out in the verticles but still a very nice model to fly.
Hope this helps.
