Check out Overtheedge's thread on "lets bash another something extra." Myself and OTE are both building these kits and have done some pretty extensive modifications to them. Counterbalanced rudder with 1" extensions on the back and top, Counter balanced elevators 1" wider with rudder opening cut to almost 45 degrees to allow maximum rudder throw, rear mount servos for elevator, pull-pull on rudder, and i made my canopy opening about 2" shorter and cut 4" off of the canopy to give it a little more hot rod look. I am putting an os70II surpass 4 stroke on mine with dubro composit landing gear. Bashing is so much fun. I would suggest this kit to anyone. Building is fast and bashing is a must
