My first intention after the crash was to sell my laser but now that I have calmed down and composed myself I have come to the conclusion of how I plan to rebuild the horizontal. I am going to buy some higher quality wood and rebuild it exactly to the plans size with one exception. I am going to stick build the horizontal with wood that is 1/8 thinner than the plan calls for. I am then going to sheet the built up piece with 1/16 balsa on top and bottom. I am also going to add gussets to EVERY SINGLE CORNER in the built up part and top that off with kevlar flying wires. (FYI: Kevlar is a very strong material that resembles some kind of high quality thread. When braided around its self and glued it become super strong and its weight is near 0 ozs.) I thing the fiberglass tape would be a good idea too but I dont have any of that in my shop. I have to jump on the laser in a hurry b/c my 33% sukhoi is supposed to arrive either tommarrow or saturday, until the laser is fixed I suppose I will fly my spare laser3D with a .46 on it or practice more IMAC with my giant stinger. All the rest of my planes are in need of some major repair.
