TF P51-D gold edition, warped wood, dimensions needed
Hi there,
I spent the weekend carefully checking the parts that came in the lovely box from the fine fellows at top-flite, I was extremely impressed with what I found. However, item P516W05 was quite badly warped and the balsa had cracked. I have no problems with this as I understand how sensitive balsa can be to climate/storage etc. My question is that the press out part contained four strips that I will have to replace but I need the correct dimensions for the part as the warps are so bad I can't work out how long they ought to be! I am refering to the 4 strips in part P51W05.
Many thanks for your help and I just wanted to say I am really looking forward to losing many hours putting this all together!
Matt
