Magnetic Canopy Problems
I have an e-flite brio 10 which is a great airplane. But it has a magnet to old the canopy shut. It doesnt work worth a damn. I was talking to another flyer who had a similair problem. He suggested a rubber band from the back of the canopy to the front of the plane to hold it shut. Anyone have any other ideas? Thanks in advance.

RE: Magnetic Canopy Problems
Stronger magnet, perhaps? There are plenty of options at Mr. George's web site:
