Jim, I understand what you are saying about the coroplast tail feathers and there is a good chance that in the near future the No Bull and LiL Bull kits will have coro tail feathers added to the kits! I have flown In RCCA contest and other combats in different parts of the country and know too well that coro would be a big plus to these kits. Also I would like to add that I have held my own in compititon against some of the BEST combat pilots in the country useing balsa and still to this day use balsa tails. and will keep useing balsa until next season.

The concern that I have is that the planes useing coro would have a clear advantage over balsa, as you have said that in mid airs the balsa can and will come apart if hit hard! Coro can come apart also, if hit in the right place.

The fine Folks at Middle Tenn. Radio Control Soc. (Cane Ridge) Have been nice enough to hold this contest at there field and Have bought somewere in the area of 20 kits from me and are hosting this LARGE event! Also folks from the clubs that I fly at on a regular basis fly the No Bull and are useing Balsa and will be at this contest. And if you remember I talked to your club about hosting this event and if the answer had have been yes then there would be no question if coro could be used. But as it turns out MTRCS will hold the event and I will stand by what these pilots wish.

I sure hate to see pilots that want to fly combat not make an event over something so simple, that I have worked so hard at to get going! I want all on a even playing field and I think this not asking that much. This is a event that is for fun and a good time and to try and stir more interest in combat, It's just too much fun to pass up!

This event will be held at MTRCS field by the rules they choose! the way I see it that would be the only way it should be done.

If they change there mind and decide to let coro fly at this event then I will back them 100% but until this happens if it does, It will be by there rules.

This is just the way it is! Maybe next year your club may want to host the event and we would go by the rules you choose. I can't be more fair then that.

Keep on flying no matter what! And the key is to have fun!!!!!!!

Thanks,
Ben Morrow
