Default Lanier Dart?

The solvent used to "weld" the platic on this airplane is MEK - be careful, this is very dangerous to the eyes.

I've had a couple of these ARFs over the years. They fly well but have some problems. Within a short time, engine vibration will make the plastic crack - this can be repaired with fiberglass and epoxy but will be a never ending repair and the weight will constantly go up. These ARFs were the source of the term Rubber Duck as the tail will flex quite a bit.
