Forgot to mention that another benefit of the build sessions is the ability to figure out what mystery tube you used when trying to clone a Kopter Dart from scrap pieces. I had what I assumed to be a balsa connector that connected a BT-55 to a BT-50, but the BT-50 nose cone didn't fit into the tube. Last night I found out that the mystery tube was an ST-8 and was able to buy a cone to fit it. All I need to do now is find a 24mm engine mount and the Dart will likely fly on Saturday.
