ORIGINAL: medicap

I am putting together my 2nd Venus 2 and am ready to put on the belly pan and line up the bolts for the wing. The last time I did this, the bolts getting lined up was a royal pain. I would have rather had a root canal! Also, I must have been off just a bit as it was a struggle to get the wing on at the flying field. Any ideas on how to accomplish this?

Also, I am putting a 120 AX on it with a 17x6 prop. This prop is a bit large for the spinner. Are there any vendors that have spinners that can accomodate an APC prop of this size without having to cut on the spinner?

Thanks,

Steve
You could make the belly pan removable by using strong rare earth magnets on both the pan and wing....

Or place in 2-tubes so the bolt goes through the tubes and can't fall out of allignment???

Not sure what the wing comes with, but haveing nylon 1/4 bolts have always worked well for me...
