I've never had good luck with CA on that type... they're almost a Teflon and
don't really like glue. Epoxy tends to work, but only because it gets
through the holes and bonds the wood all the way through. I would think that
CA may be too brittle, though you might get by with thick CA and no
accelerator. Even when I've used epoxy, I've still pinned them.

You've STILL never flown? You're worse than me! At least I used to get in
one flight a week per bird. The slopers were a different story completely...
if there was lift, you couldn't keep me out of the air and I'd do my best to
buy radios with frequencies that nobody else had to make sure I had the hill
to myself all day.

I haven't looked into the RC groups on the net... just guitar and tube amp
related stuff. If you can receive netmail, I'll send you his address
(provided I can still find it).
C-ya! Rich
