I just got my corsair in the mail last night. It looks like it will be lots of fun. I'm going to run the stock motor on a 2 cell Lipo pack. It should be fun for strafing runs and mild aerobatics. ( I've got a brushles hot rod funfly for 3D) Anyway, i heard if you fly it without the gear the wings get pretty banged up on landing. I was wondering if strapping tape at the bends would help. Thoughts?

Packing tape across the entire bottom area of contact for landing will certainly help. I can also suggest "Glassing or Coating" the under carriage. Coating is the same as glassing minus the .25 .5 or .75 oz glass clotch. Used with Minwax Polycrylic.

Thanks, will do!

Also, I have heard good things about using "Monocoat" or "Ultra Coat" on the bottom to help beef things up.
