Status: offline 		Got the new Xtreme CF frame for the HBK2. Any reason why they used plastic for the bottom plate?
When all the rest of the parts are CF.
Is everyone pulling all the screws & using locktite and/or CA glue for metal screws in metal & screws
into the plastic?

Status: online 		For all screw to metal, USE BLUE locktite (i forgot on one, and it backed halfway out during a short test hover).

Screws into plastic I did not use ca, and they have not budged.

I cannot figure out why they used plastic for the bottom, kinda silly, maybe they will release a new cf bottom.

Status: offline 		Yep the lower frame should have been heavier plastic but CF may be TO rigid, some flex is needed, however heavier plastic and longer would have been nice.
Is it possible to get 4 of the servo stand-off used on the front (elevator) servo, looks like they should fit on the rears and give a better line up while opening up the read and making servo replacement easier, as stock it's a pain to get the bottom rear servo screws when one has the gyro and rudder servo installed.
