Well, the canard fell right off. The epoxy did nothing.

I'll test all of my adhesives (from left to right) on the shoulder of the PNC to see if any of them melt it. Nothing melts it. What kind of plastic IS this?!

I ended up having to use CA gel with a little shot of accelerator after it. We'll see how this goes. If it's not secure enough I'll make slits in the PNC, drive small spruce strips into the root edges of the canards (which are hollow, fortunately,) and slot-mount the canards to the PNC.
