I think 1.5 mil, mine is very thin, starts out frosted looking, clears when heated.

I bought a roll of this stuff 5 years ago, used it once to cover DollarTree Foamboard, the heat to laminate it was enough to delaminate the paper from the foamboard. :( I did hear it was good for...

I fly all types, but my opinion is:
If it's real little electric is the only way to go.
20 to 60 size either nitro or electric is fine, electrics are winning me over here though.

I've never had a problem and on my sailplanes I've used steel from servo to control horn for 30 years. Using steel your tirms won't change with the temp changes. A nice way to do it is to get a set...

Mauricio
I have had a couple OS .26's, I think that powering a 61" Cub might be a little too much for one. I have one in a 48" Cub which flies nicely, a 61" Cub would be about twice as big, so...
