wing progress
Must appologize for delay. Weather has been just too nice here is SoCal that I havn't had much time for building and posting. Taken the opportunity to FLY! But over the last couple of weeks I have been able to get back to the Kadet. So here are some pics of the progress with the wing. I have also started the fuse, but will post that later.
The attached pics should help to describe how I have tried to 'bash' this kit form to a two-piece flat (no dihedral) wing so that Earnie can haul it around in his car. You will note some rib doublers made out of 5/16 ply for strength to take the pressure from the removable aluminum 'spar' that will keep the wings together in flight. Also note the W1 ribs where the two wings join are ply and have a 'tab' nose that will fit into a slot in the front cabin former to hold the wing in place (same as came in the old ARF version). One problem I had with this is getting it to line up from the leading edge to the trailing edge. To accomplish this you should see that in the front and rear of the W1 ribs I installed blind nuts that will be accessible from the underside of the wing that fits over the cabin. Also included is the cut outs I made for the 'bashed' ailerons. Hope these pics take after all this typing. And yes I will have pics of the fuse to follow shortly.
