Beautiful work, dude! Nicely done!!! 😃 The only thing I'd change (and that's probably what I'm going to do) is to fix the tail in the airplane with nylon screws. You know? Probably with a piece of hardwood or aluminum with threaded holes and glued from the inside... Or something, I don't know. Anyway, stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
Hotglue on bottom plus 2 plastic cards on either side is extremely strong. adding screws and hardwood to tail will make it more tail heavy than it already is with servos in back. It's unnecessary. the foamboard will fail long, long before these glue joints lol
You should try an inverted v tail on your next build. Like the RQ7 shadow drone. more complicated to build perhaps but it has the advantage of naturally giving coordinated turns

INFORMATION :58 servos do NOT, repeat NOT, go at the tail.!!!!! the pushrod ends are NOT correctly bent, at the control horn ends.! 19:58 a tail boom SHOULD be TAPERED as Much as is practical. that means, taper of the tail boom should begin near where the 'cockpit' would be.! the use of correct taper improves the dom of the airframe and reduces the auw.!!! dom is distribution of mass. d
