Thanks for all the info. I had already planned on X-ing the glue joint in the middle of the wing and adding counter-balances to the elevators, but I will increase the size of the rudder also. Another question. Did you use the steel pull-pull cables that came with the kit, or did you use Kevlar thread. I have never had very good luck with the music wire so I thought about using Kevlar. Either way, I have a TT .46 pro with a Macs tuned muffler and a Futaba digital flight pack on the way. It ought to be a great plane if it flies the way you say it does. Thanks again for all the input!
