ORIGINAL: Caspa1

Brilliant demonstration. With modern structural elements such as carbon fibre it is very sad to see the lack of attention to detail in what would be the highest load point of the entire wing.

Is the kilogram loading you have applied a realistic amount - 60kgs?
Assuming a 60lb "wet" weight (which is probably lower than what it would be) 60kgs = 132 lbs roughly, which is a 2.2G load. That is way under what i would expect that structure to hold. I am expecting my model to hold a 10G continous load assuming a 80lb wet weight.
