Funny how everyone has a solution to any modeling problem so i'll just go back to subject matter here...model screw ups. My screw up came early on and cannot be fixed. I built the wrong scale model period. Not that it does not fly well on the contrary it fly's great because most big scale planes fly better and everything works until you try to land it on a paved runway. Fokker triplanes suck and it just gets worse. So I suggest he who spends years building what they always wanted to build pay attention to where they fly and if you plane is not suitable to that environment move on to something else. Some people have no problem selling a plane they put years of work in and new it was a screw up...I can't do that. Well then just move to another field...I can't do that. Make it a hanger queen...I can't do that with a plane that weighs over 40 lbs and as big as it is. So I call it the closets queen. Takes up two closets one for the wings the other for the fuse. Have a nice day modelers.
