Thanks for the compliments. I am a novice builder, but I am very meticulous and a little OCD about how things look when I build.

That warping is from the pulling of the covering. I got the stab and fin nice and straight with gentle twisting and the heat gun before I flew it. It certainly looks a lot nicer in these pics than it does after I repaired the nose 3 times and the tail once today... The wing never suffered a dent, but the fuse sure took a beating. One time, simply taxiing around my driveway to get a feel for the plane I had a relatively gentle nose-over that broke the fuse in half... very frustrating.

Here are pics of it as it looks right now... You can see the silver trim and decal I put on the wing. The nose broke like this several times today. I finally added strips of balsa all over the place, which made it hold up better. The break here happened in the car ride home actually...
