Default RE: What Mods/renforcement needs to be done on Hangar 9 Corsair ARF for it to fly safe?

I read this issue with interest. When setting up a new A.R.F. the use of glass cloth or carbon / Kevlar cloth should ALWAYS be a part of the 'ARF's construction process. This so called hot glue I find questionable indeed with regard to SECURING a firewall and remember you can always reinforce the inside and out side perimeter of the fuselage/and firewll (contact area) with slow dry epoxy with some chopped glass mixed in;just remember massive quantities of epoxy only serves to add weight..[8D]
