The last 1/72 scale F-104 conversion I did worked fine and A10-3T motors, but it was awfully hard to get enough parachute into it to properly cushion the landing given the nose weight required to make it stable. I was always sweating whether the wings or stabilizer would be broken on landing.

Good luck!
