Tony will say poly C!
I use heat-shrink film all over, on my models, so they don't need painting.

if you are calm and collected when all about you are going berserk - you've missed something important!

balsa loc probably the best bet.
i have heard that some people use canopy glue or a light swipe of ca.

Sorry that you don't like poly c eric, but please stop beating me over the head about it.

are you going to cut holes in the rudder to lighten the rear end a bit more sky.

looking good though.
