Default future of Kyosho F-86

Thanks guys -

I'm debating with myself if I want to invest anymore time and effort on this model. I have been looking around for what would appear to be the right type of 'plastic' soda bottle to convert into a thrust tube. There would appear to be several holes that will need to be cut into the bottle at certain spots just for the control rods, etc. ( how many? Five plus?)

I'm also trying to psyche myself up to the point of actually start cutting on the wing. I have not reached that point yet.

The washin was the primary problem with my first KF-86. This second one is better in the wing tip department. Also, talking with Summitt120 after the last attempted flight, Mike pointed out that he thought (I agreed) that using the 40% fuel, the model had better flight performance than this last attempt using the 65% racing fuel.

I guess thats enough for tonight. later.
