Default RE: AR-6 Construction Thread

A piece of 7 thousandths x 7/8" x 50" carbon fiber laminant provides tensile strength on the bottom of the wing.

Plan the location of the fiber so that the landing gear blocks don't interfere.

The wing skins are taped together so that trailing edge makes a hinge. It's sorta like a book or taco.
