OK Back to work!

Like I said, getting the wing mounted is what set everything in motion....

Ok, I decided that I want to use a pin and bolt system like I have on my CompARF Flash. So the first thing I needed to do was make some pins. I know some guys used wood dowels but I felt that they might not be strong enough so I built my own composite dowels using a carbon fiber tube and some hard wood dowel material. I then mated them up with a 1/4 ply circle that will back up the pins once they are installed.

Picture #1 & #2 Shows the pins

Picture #3 Shows the large holes in the forward bulkhead.

Pictures #4 & #5 show the hold down dowels installed in the wing.
