The tape works great.
You might also want to a add a prop protector until you get the hang of chucking it. The problem is, if you don't get it manage airborn you usually end up dropping to ground flat at full power and the exposed prop get broken. I've even had props break on landing with power off.
I broke several props, then I added a prop protector.
This is easy to make, just cut a wedge of dense any type of dense, light foam (polystyrene packing works well) and velcro it to the bottom of the wing, just ahead of the prop. This keeps the trailing edge (and the prop) of the ground.
It spoils the look of the model in the air a bit, but it saves the prop.
You can aways cover it to match the wing.
