I actualy had the boom snap out of its position recently. Ed showed how to add a tie wrap via drilling a small hole on each side slightly behind the area where you add the mod packs. Then by adding the tie wrap through and around you hold the boom stick down in place. Im sure theres a thread somewhere in here on how to do this with a detailed step by step description.
I didnt even know that was the problem until today. Since last week ive been scratching my head wondering why I had to fight her so much on takeoffs and even shimmed pieces of cardboard under the tail section to correct the angle.

My original problem was the way I was launching and over controling(the usuall suspects for newbies.). Ed showed me very quickly how not to over steer and let her go up without aid. The plane practialy flew itself. Since then ive been getting some good flight time in and much less time at the hobby shop
