Pretty much the same glues that worked for Wright Stuff will work for helicopter. Same issues of minimizing weight will maximizing strength. The gluing discussion we migrated over from the old Wright Stuff site: http://soinc.org/sites/default/files/up ... weight.pdf still applies.

I would get it, but I always forget when I buy stuff online and I can't find it anywhere else.

or

Does anyone know of a CA glue remover? For example, acetone dissolves ambroid cement. Is there anything like that for CA?
