Hi PB,
I hope the carbon rods stay on OK, that was my reasoning behind fitting into holes. I had to flex the rods into the holes and they held themselves without the cyano. I'll keep an eye on them to see the cyano doesn't fail. The u\c apart from being bendy has no problem with being swept back. I'm going to get a "carbon copy" CCU016 swept carbon u\c to replace it. The ground handling is peachy not a hint of a noseover as the wheels are still well forward but not too far as to make ground looping a problem. The FA-80? hmmm? well it's slightly lighter than the FA-65 with which I could take off in 6ft but with a load more grunt. First outing with it tomorrow I hope! Should have unlimited vertical performance :^)
