Well, you make a good point about larger fins. I am also working on a Mini Honest John. Since it's the M50 version, it has smaller fins, and it's a little kit to begin with. Being a glutton for punishment, I am hand sanding the diamond airfoil on the fins. Those fins are so little its hard to hold them still while sanding!
