I will have a look at that. One thing I could do is attach the wings temporarily to the fuse without the wing tube. If they are flush, then I know the wing tube is longer. Note that I mixes the epoxy with alcohol when I applied from behind the wing tube sleeve in the wing. When I added the alcohol to the 5 min epoxy mix with microballoon filler, I added too much and the mix had the consistency of cooking oil. I knew it would thicken within a few minutes so I applied two coats. I applied on one wing then kept it aside and applied on the second. By the time that was done, the first was dry and I applied a second coat. I am sure a lot of epoxy flowed around the wing tube sleeve and that must have hardened it quite a bit

The Reactor Bipe is expensive- But there is a catch. I usually buy these from the Scratch&dent section. I have two Bipes, both missing canopy magnets or something small. And I bought them before the price rise. Call that foresight or planning or just luck at being at the right place at the right time. The older of the two was bought just about an year ago. I have it double sealed (with duct tape both on the box and on the outer carboard carton) so that moisture doesnt get in (much) and damage the airplane. You could say I am in the ideal position to 'progress' to the bipe. The only decision is whether or not to put the DLE20 on it or go with the originally intended FS91SII or the FS110A (which was also bought scratch&dent, by the way)
