| Yes Paul, those, they look like inverted heli tail fins. If I could get them separately they would do as the legs on my quad. | |

| You could always design your own andy? I have the perfect material for those, Its a compressed foam used for sign boards and its the same stuff I used for my quad centre sections. | |

| No need to design, I have a tail fin I could cut round, my only question is would the foam be strong enough? My other option is plywood, but metal would be my first choice, if it bends you can bend it back, foam and plywood means I need to go back in the garage to cut some more and it is getting cold in there now  | |

It is all just about ready, just waiting for the ESCs to be delivered which seems to be taking ages but hopefully will be this week. | |
