boom support modification???

[ferincr]

I've noticed that some people modified the way the tail supports are attached to the main frame.
Can somebody explain to me which is the benefit of lowering the anchor point of them and where/how exactly are attached to?
Thanks,

Lowering the anchor point gives more of an A frame with greater rigidity

So I guess that is mostly for hard core 3D than general use? Or could also minimize damage on a crash?

Colin Bell told me that it also lowers the chance of bolts breaking due to being screwed into plastic instead of metal.

I find it better looking too.

So what do you do?
Just drill and use self taping screws instead of bolt and nut? Or you drill all the way through and use nuts too?

You can drill and tap them too. I haven't done this mod yet.
