The only real mod I did was not use the CA Hinges i used flat pinned hinges ont the elevator and alerons and Robart pin type on the rudder and that is only because I perfer them, but many swear by the ca hinges... The main Mod is to the bottom wing. There is NO hard wood in the leading edge so when you catch a wing tip when the plane rocks side to side on a landing
( and you will ) it cracks right near the fuse. I have a second one and on this one I'm going to take a Dremel and carve a straight half circle line the whole length of the bottom wing and put a small carbon rod in there and then pull the covering back over it. I think this will be enough to make it solid. My first I didn't do anything to it and it cracked I just put some CA in it and it held... Definetly not the right way to do it.... LOL
