yeah this little plane was a nightmare for me... i have big hands and it was always a tight squeeze...
i used this tail wheel
http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXLLB9&P=7
and used a 8oz Listerine bottle as a tank
[/quotYeah, I got a dubro 8 oz tank for mine, the one that came with it is huge. I should get 15 minutes on 8 oz. That is close to the tail wheel I bought. Running a double clunk on the tank, and will loop the vent. The squares on your bottom wing look cool.
Did you CA or epoxy on the inside to strenghten it any where?
yes definitely use thin CA on all the joints, some were pretty weak... i also added a little bracing and a place to strap one of the batteries ...i also cut the floor board out to mount the ignition under the front of the tank.
The plane is pretty much indestructible now.... i did a couple of full throttle dives into full left aileron into a violent blender and it held up
one thing you might need issome bigger aileron horns to compensate for the huge double bevels the ailerons have.... maybe they revised the kit and added the correct size, mine any my brothers ARFs came with the wrong ail. HW
