Thanks for the suggestions dadkins, much appreciated! I was considering 2 rudders made out of an abundant supply of 1/4" ply laying around and considering the nature of the beast it won't be expensive. As memory serves when I was running nitro airplanes on the river in the winter they all seemed to do well in the cold, probably better than I did Lol. I have a choice of two engines for the project, one a Webra 61 and a Thunder tiger 61, hope one of these will provide adequate power. Just haven't decided on a one piece self contained module or keep the radio box separate to help balance things out, having never built one of these the weight and balance with the materials used is a mere guessing game at best.
