I installed a IFlyTallies cockpit. After the second flight I discovered hair line cracks in the empenage so I cut open the bottom of the plane last night and put carbon fiber mat all the way around the inside of the empenage. The stock gear doors handled the thick grass at our field as you can see in the photo.
beautiful plane!! Where in the empennage did you discover the cracks? I’ll defin want to reinforce that area
thanks for the info
