Easy Sport 40 KIT - Stuck on part 2C
I was given an Easy Sport 40 Kit - and so far the kit has been a breeze, however I have a piece leftover on the part ESP4F01 labeled 2C. I cannot find any 2C on the plans or in the manual. They are beside the Leading Edge Braces so I don't want to glue the two wings together until I figure it out as it has the dihedral angle of the wing. I have laid it against all spars, leading and trailing edges but it isn't obvious where it should go.
I know this kit is discontinued and is almost 10 years old, but if anyone has any ideas let me know.
Here is an image of the part layout.

Hello Mr. Wonders, I happen to be in the middle of building an Easy Sport myself. This will be my second one since the first had misfortune. When I saw your post it got me thinking because I have my wing pretty much done and I couldn't for the life of me remember even using it. So I went to my work bench and looked around and there sat 2C. It actually is a part for the fuselage. If you look at the fuse side of the plans you will see it goes right behind the wind shield at the top.
I may have thrown it out if I hadn't come across this thread. Thanks!

Hello Mr. 4*, just call me wonders Mr. ow is my dad...lol.
How fortuitous for both of us. I found the F2C that you mentioned. That makes sense! What confused the point for me is that there is another 2C on the die-cut drawings, I believe is is 2B for the tail dragger, I never put the two and two together.
I have attached another image of that other part. It must be mislabelled.
So now I can continue to put my wings together. BTW I am making two, one from the kit and one I am cutting the wood from the templates I made from the kit. I know I am going to crash, so I will be prepared!
Let me know how your build goes, I am electrifying mine. This is my first ever build and really enjoying it; I have found some info on the forums of other electric conversions of this plane, but they are very old using old motors, ESC and batteries. If you have any more information on conversions let me know!

Hey, I forgot about this thread. My build went really good and have maidened it. It flies just like you'd expect. A nice throw around plane. Here are a couple of pictures of it.
