I'm sure the rubber band will need replacing, any good online sources for these?

Thanks!

ps: This is the original Cloudbuster with the box shaped fuselage and polyhedral wing. Around 30" wingspan IIRC.
What a coincidence. We too built this model at the beginning of my hobby.
Just noticed that it's been a while since you've posted, Bijan999. But how did it go?
