Default Burning Rubber

I'm flying a Bat Trick and each time I land the thing I mess up a bunch of rubber bands that hold the wing on. I built a little aluminum skid and screwed it into the wood for the engine mount, but the aluminum is denting the bat, and I think in a hard hit it will cut right through the plastic and fuel tank. The best thing I've found so far is to just cover the rubber bands with a piece of wax paper and then put a nice piece of duct tape across the rubber. I'm sure there's somebody out there who has solved this problem. What's the trick?

Thanks!

Think about trading it in on an Avenger?

It's a MUCH better flying plane. The best in the RCCA made by the TOP combat pilot in the country. Look on the ********.net site for a guy by the name of "THE TICK". He can tell you everything you need to know.

put mounds of goop on either side of the rubberbands.

we land on the asphalt and have to do this with our bats to save the rubberbands and zip-ties
