Am I looking in the wrong places?

Don't worry, you did fine. You're just about to do UPSCALED Goony Birds. I've done the Star Snoop and Cloudhopper, and I've got the parts cut out for the Zoom Broom somewhere. (With stuff spread out over three houses it's tough to tell where they might be.) A word of advice. Go with the 24mm power and some nose weight instead of 18mm. The C5-3 was the only real choice for these IMHO.
