first I have the Dynaflite instruction booklet. referring to the instillation of the steel shaft in the inboard wings. the instructions call for the inner wings to have a 3.5 degree dihedral...so the metal rod needs the same. how did you approach this did you build both wings first then build in the shaft angle. seems to me if you follow the instructions and build one wing at a time you run the risk of the shaft not fitting perfectly due to the angle in the wing. and how did you build the support for the shaft between the spars.

on page 7 it shows a picture of a rib where you cut out a center section instructions 14 are a bit confusing it says to cut this piece out and glue it to the end of the innermost shear web? that makes no sense.
