Default RE: DH-Comet

Maiden flight this`week, had to get another on board glow it just came in the mail Friday. Reaching around and under 2 YS 63's running never seemed to be a good idea... I did fiberglass the formers in the tail section and gave the tail extra attention with epoxy. Turned out solid........ During a engine break in run. The elevator rod mount snapped at the U Rod It was poorly soldered. This would have caused an instant heap O' crap. I modified the tail to an outer push rod set-up.....

But as with all ARF's I treat'em like I am repairing them rather building them then I have just me to blame for it's future or lack there of.
