Default Best Glue for PZ Messerchmitt Fuse Break?



1st day with my new pz warbird......wow, doesnt get out of a jam as quick as a 3D plane! duh. anyway i broke the fuse in half at the leading edge of the wing. any suggestions how best to fix this? CF rods? I beleive PZ planes are z-foam.... whats the best glue to fix? i hear hot glue, ca foam safe with activator, 5 min epoxy, liquid nails. advice anyone? please?

i sure would like to fly this beauty more than once! =)....was fun while it lasted.

thanks in advance!

Use 5min epoxy from local hardware store.  It doesn't add that much weight and it can be smoothed and molded to the plane, and its stronger than foam safe CA.

Yeah Kev, this is a big step from a U-Can-Do wait after the warbird bug has bitten you and you go to bigger birds
