Default GOT ONE!

Well I picked one up last weekend and started building it that Sunday, I'm now finished with the airplane and ready to start covering it. I understand about bracing the tail but did I understand correctly to do the same thing with the wing?

Good Points -- VERY Lite!
-- Got it CHEAP NIB for $50 bucks
-- Neat

Bad Points -- Why do you need to build up ailerons on a funfly?
-- Can you say weak FUSE?
-- Standard Servos don't fit in the wing saddle area had to modify a little
-- Whats with the gear set up?

What engine should I use? I've got a STRONG TT 46 I just took off my pro twister (I swing a APC 11 x 4 prop) that should do!

Can you SAY RUDDER!

I will build another one of these except build up the FUSE for Sure and put regular fun fly landing gear in it and put a 61 engine in!

For the record the book does point out that this airplane is for practicing Hovering and Torque rolling. It even said the prefered method of launch is by hand. They do make it clear that this is not a fun fly for fun airplane (That didn't make sense - did it?) But to practice on.
