Fiz, You did not waste your time reinforcing the retract rails. I've been flying mine for 5 years trouble-free after adding hardwood under the existing rails. Well worth the extra effort.

I then wasted two hours of my life I won't get back building up one retract mounting area and I'm still not finished....
If I hadnt spent so much money on this I would sell it, but I know I'd take a bath on it so I'll push ahead. At least I already had all the servos and engine from another plane.
