ONE GREAT THING MY FRIEND TOLD ME A LONG TIME AGO IS GET SOME CLEAR PLASTIC TAPE.. THE STUFF YOU USE TO CLOSE SHIPPING BOXES WITH. PUT ON THE LEADING EDGES OF THE WINGS, VERTICAL AND HORZONTAL STABILIZER LEADING EDGES AND A PIECE ON THE UNDERSIDE OF THE WIND AT THE TIP[S. THIS WAY IF YOU SCRAP OR BUMB INTO FOD, IT WILL CAUSE LESS DAMAGE THEN WITHOUT IT. STYROFOAM CRACKS WITH IMPACT BUT WITH THE TAPE YOU MOSTLY END UP WITH A DING. BUT AT HIGH SPEED IMPACT.. KISS THE AICRAFT GOODBYE AND BE PREPARED FOR REPAIRS IF POSSIBLE.
