RE: Contest Balsa Source?
Definitely very minor sanding on the 1/20th and set the temp. of the iron moderate.
Also plenty of CF strips for additional strength. I used all my 1/20th s on a pair of wings for a gas pattern ship. Hold very strong.
The problem is nowadays you can not get 1/20" from the two Blasa shops. 1/16" or 1/32".
