I'm giving some consideration to papering the fins on my Estes Executioner, and wanted some advice. The kit comes with 1/8" balsa fins, and I'm a bit concerned that the fin tips will take damage upon landing. I am considering papering the fins, but I'm not sure which way I want to go with it.
It seems to me that using adhesive label paper and using CA on the edges would be easier, but I seem to recall reading here that using white glue, while much messier/trickier to do, is stronger.
Lastly, are my concerns about damaging the fin tips justified or not warranted?
