Yeah, thats basically my plan now. Thanks for clearing up the engine question also.

And about the toothpicks...your dead on, that would be a very bad thing to tell them about.

I dono if any of you have actually built this one and remember, but did you have trouble keeping the wooden pieces glued to the landing gear wheel pant? any techniques on this? or a stonger glue or epoxy u know of?

Also...any specific radios you suggest they would have at hobbytown usa?
