Finally got the flat head screws to secure aileron hinge wires into the wing tips. Countersunk the holes and screws are flush now.


Tip of both ailerons.


Applied light weight body putty to the sanded areas of the flaps and ailerons. I plan to sand smooth and apply lightweight glass to the sanded areas and reprime.
