Are there hard points in the ailerons and elevators for the control horns? Or are you just drilling through whatever the ailerons or elevators are made of?

Those Team USA guys should be flying alone. I've been to a couple of contests where this has been the rule. I was a CD at 2 other contests where I held up one line while the Team member flew. This...

Obama can't lose New York. Romney can't win New York. We never have to worry about either one of them coming to Buffalo.

RE: Sun Dot Help

I think you want opaque. I've never used one when facing directly into the sun. I use mine in the evening when the sun is low at the left side of the box. It is really effective.
