Hi All, Had a pretty bad crash this evening...it was just too windy out and I'm not too great with flying my SC yet. The tail section of my plane broke off. I gorilla glued it but it doesn't seem strong enough. Also, the leading edge of the left wing is pretty beat up and chipped. Any suggestions on how to fix these problems? Thanks A.

When i broke my tail section off i used gorilla glue AND a wooden BBQ skewer stick to strengthen the repair. I then covered that area with clear packing tape. Remember to keep the added repair weight down as adding more weight back there does tend to make the SC more tail heavy.
Glue some foam into the damaged wing & trim - should be ok.

Used CA and ran some CF rods thru mine. Good as new.
