Default RE: e-flite mini edge 540

Mine's about done, but I haven't done much building in a very long time, what are you guys using for gluing the canopy's down nowadays. Also wondering about the catch design on the hatch, anybody consider pulling the wire catch off and using magnets?

Alignment issues: wings went on pretty straight, but after reading a bit, I think I better put an incident meter on it and make sure their really straight. Ailerons where slotted badly for hinges... make sure you check them before gluing. My tail feathers lined up pretty straight, just minor sanding for the horizontal stab. I ended up re-shrinking most of the kit, my covering was loose right outta the box.

haven't installed the fuse servo's yet, but planed to go with both in the rear, considering a 2100 Mah battery and an aluminum spinner. Hope it balances out well. Guess I see shortly!

Hope to fly it next week sometime
