Maybe this has been discussed and I just can't find it. If so, please point me in the right direction and I'll shut up.
Here's the deal. The Tres instructions call for 1/8" balsa for the upper section fins. The fin pattern sheet says 3/32" balsa for those fins. The kit included 1/16" balsa for the upper fins, and that is what is on the parts list. Besides these conflicts, it seems to me that 1/16" is probably a bit too flimsy for the upper section fins. I'm thinking 3/32" would be better. Anyone had any problems with 1/16" balsa for the upper fins?
