The dog is 4 years old, she may or may not see 5. (I hear once they develop a taste for balsa there is not much else you can do)

Splais, thank you for the wing mounting tip. I thought the method outlined in the manual looked 1. kind of weak 2. a real pain in the arse.

The other hokey lookin' thing about this ARF is the elevator pushrod. I am using one hitec 645, and I will be making a carbon fiber (arrow shaft) Y pushrod, and I may or may not brace it in the tail, depending on how solid the linkage "feels".

For Sale: German Shorthair. Docile, great with kids, no trouble at all.... really.....
