I've been having trouble keeping the Rubber Wing Root Channel in place. It will sometimes come out especially when doing aerobatics.
Any ideas on how to secure it? I've tried several glues, tapes etc but it feels almost like a silicone based material and nothing I've found sticks to it....
 
3M? SUPER WEATHER STRIP ADHESIVE - yellow

I used this and holding very well. I know I ready about it somewhere on VAF, tried it and working good for me.
 
A dot of cyano (instant glue, medium from hobby store) every couple of inches did the trick for me. Also works great when you need 2 washers and cannot get tiny fingers in the space needed :)
 
CA did not work for me.

I taped the rubber onto the fairing about every 3 inches then put some 3M Weatherstrip Adhesive under the rubber (between the tapes) on the inside only. Make sure that you get the ends. Works like a charm...
 
Try 3M 1300L, paint on both surfaces and let dry then retouch with second coat, when second coat becomes tacky, stick matting surfaces together.
