Issac,
Thanks for your quick reply. I also discovered Hobby King products but was somewhat concerned by a few reviews that described them as not being straight and the wall thickness being too thin.

Shall I assume that you kept the 11mm phenolic tube that came with the kit and just replaced the 10mm hollow tube ?

What is wall thickness of that tube ? Can't find that info on Hobby King's website.

You are to be congratulated for your outstanding workmanship !

Thanks,
Frank
Hi Frank,

You right, I kept the 11mm phenolic tube that came with the kit and just replaced the 10mm aluminum hollow tube.

I checked my orders from Hobby King and I found that I didn't by the 10mm carbon tube from them.

Now I remember that I purchased the 10mm carbon tube from some local hobby shop in Israel, and I don't know what the original source is.

The inside diameter should be about 7.5mm.

I can only suggest you to ask Hobby King about the inside diameter.

You can also by this tube (TUP 15 0.393" – 9.9822mm OD X 0.29" – 7.366mm ID) and I am sure it will fit properly:
