RE: GWS TIGER MOTH WINGS
some guys add fishing line or dental floss between the two wings to act as extra reinforcement, just like the real bi planes have.

I have been reading about the GWS Tiger Moth here on rcu, and i am wondering if any one has heard of the wings wanting to fold on loops. is there any way to avoid this?
Thanks

I put a 1/8 carbon tube in the bottom side of the bottom wing.
Routed out a slot and glued in.
I have a himax 4200-25 6:1gear 11:80 prop and 2100 lipo
with this I go full stick and I can do loops (very tight) with no problem.
