Well i have an original Telemaster 66 and two Telemaster 40"s one nitro one electric both built from original kits. The 66 is over 30 years old and quite a few have learned to fly on her. The 40's are 20 and 10 yrs old. The 66 is built exactly as per the kit and the two 40's have larger vertical stabs for float flying and upgraded 4/40 hardware and sullivan clevises. Other than that everything in the kits were used as supplied. I found no fault with the materials supplied in the kits. The upgrades on the two 40's were my personal preferences and probably not necessary remember the 66 has been flying for 30 plus years without any problems built bone stock. On that note I think this year would be a good time to replace that 30 year old hardware with some 4/40 stuff. thanks for the reminder.
