Default advance 40

elkiwi: I just bot an new-in-the-box Advance 40 (which is discontinued) from a hobby shop I traced down in California. I plan to start assembly on it in late February, probably powering it with a OS .46 FX. Do you have any suggestions regarding its construction or modifications you might recommend? Although I've assembled a number of ARFs, each one seems to benefit by some input from other owners. I'd really appreciate your guidance. bill beardsley

glue the tail and use better servo arms and also dual aileron servos. i wolud also reccomend on doubling the area and possibly counterbalancing the tail surfaces. mine met its demise when the tail blew off on an inverted pass
it was spectacular a huge cartwheel in front of like 50 people
