CAD designed, laser-cut wing:



Shear webs laid out




Initial framing of both panels




Close-up of carbon fiber rods and spruce spars




Although this wing was designed for retracts, I am modifying these for fixed gear, because my current fuse plug is designed only for fixed gear. (And, that is one less thing to go wrong when reliability is the key for a successful racing season.).
But to make it up to the scale aficionados, I am trying scale split flaps for the first time. (Fingers crossed)
