    I have the Aluminum Spot-on wing bolts from Aztec and I assume I did not have it tight enough and it vibrated loose and came off. I guess it fell out of the plane because I could not find it. Partly my fault, it was my 5th flight and I should have checked them. You are correct. The repairs...

    Thank you! All we can do as parents is to do our best to lead our children in the right direction and hope they find that certain thing that they really enjoy and want to continue with. I found it has to be their choice and not what I want them to do. It really does help with the financial...

    You a correct sir! Not to mention that thing is a blast in the wind down here! I did some tuning on the 20 yesterday and it is running so much better. I am planning on putting the 18x6 on today and see how it does.

    74" Edge 540

    Josh I believe that will work. I'm not sure but I think my angle is 1/2" or maybe 5/8". But, the 3/4" will give you plenty of area to secure it with. Oh, in my last post the Duh! Was for me leaving out that small detail. :-)
