Need input concerning mods to CX2 body

I'm a newbie, just got my CX2 heli and I could not leave it alone. I had to go for a paint scheme to separate it from the others. Now I'm requesting input from others on the board.

I ordered the tan E-flite body along with the gun and missle kit from Horizon. When I received it the "wings" were bent, not to where the plastic was cracked. The tan body is a woodland camo now. With the "wings" bent it looks goofy to mount the missles underneath. So, now I'm looking for other options such as mounting guns to the side of the heli. I guess I'll be going to the hobby store to buy some plastic model kits for armament. If someone has some pictures/information to share please send them/reply to spr6.8spc@yahoo.com.

Can you use epoxy to mount plastic model guns to the heli body?

(I posted this in the mods section of the site but never received ny feedback)

Hi yes I've used alot of epoxy on thick plastic before I made my aluminum updates. have not used on that thin water bottle plastic. heat gun works pretty good if the plastic is not thin.

Use whatever you want. Epoxy, duct tape, Scotch tape.

Just remember that "less is best".
