10 Feb 08 - I bought this model on eBay and picked it up this afternoon. The servos were already fitted and it is impossible to see what they are. I fitted a spare battery pack, synthesised RX and a battery monitor. The tape holding the fin and the upper elevon hinge tape was a little UV damaged so I replaced it. There was a little lead on the nose which I removed. I friend dropped some coloured tape around so I added some yellow, blue and red to make it more colourful, which added a mere 7g to the overall weight.
