Nice build and design. I'm assuming the shrink wrap is so you can remove the servos at a later time?

The new rudder is on, but as I missed the closing date and due to excessive temperatures in my attic, the project is postponed.

Flew with new rudder, but still funny behavior.

Next try with sidethrust and maybe a little dihedral.
