Looks better. Lasts longer. Perhaps very slightly more aerodynamic. Another thing I like to do with the zagi-style wings is bury the pushrods. Instead of have the servo arms stick up, I have them stick down, and drill/melt a conduit for it in the foam so the servo arms and most of the pushrods are buried (and straws make nice tubes), and it comes out of the foam closer to the elevon. The combat guys do that because it makes the plane more resiliant, but it's also sleeker and looks better. And it's easy to do. -- Doug McLaren, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Time flies like an arrow; fruit flies like a banana. RCSE-List facilities provided by Model Airplane News.
