As I was cutting the covering to put the wing servos in last night, I noticed what a lot of you guys have been seeing with the ribs - the rib next to the servo mounting hole was crushed. I was able to get it all pushed back in place, so I saturated it with thin CA in hopes it will hold together. I'm not sure what the problem is, but GP definitely has something wrong with the way they're packing or handling these things.

To anyone who has had the cracked ribs, was there any other damage you found that I should look out for? Also, anyone adding carbon fiber to the horizontal stab area for strength, or possibly tail brace wires?

With some of these planes losing their tails, I'm thinking of adding CF to the rear fuse area where the stab mounts. I got some CF that is 3" wide that I think would work well if I lay it down the fuse on either side wher the stab mounts.
