    The bases for the servos have been strengthened. The valves for the tripples are attached to the underside of the superstructure hatch using velcro

    Careful with the plastic wood there Paul. It can become a headache. I tried it once. Not my liking but hey whatever works for you. Chris are you still talking double talk?

    The only reason I used plastic wood is the smell factor. It was used to make sure gaps were filled. Once dried all excess was sanded off.
