Default RE: Assembling a Gremlin question

Thanks very much. I'm using the CF tape to reinforce the leading edge (using Finishing resin thinned with alcohol to emplace it) and am fibreglassing the center section as well. Used Scotch Extreme Applications tape instead of the standard fibreglass tape to do the longtitudinal strapping.

Though I do appear to be ending up having to put in place two sets of servo rails as three abreast (Futaba S3004s) appear to be pretty damn crowded.

Has anyone reinforced the engine mount area before it cracks? The PVC really looks quite thin! I was thinking about fabricating a magnesium or titanium plate to sandwich the PVC with the plywood.

thanks, /S.
