RE: Extending Servo Leads

Mike, all good advice.

Make the trip now, or you may be able to pick some up on your way to replace the airframe.

RE: Issues with a Sig Riser 78

Are the tips squared off? Cut the tips up at a 45*. I've seen beginers miss this important aerodynamic detail. Yah, promotes roll.
