I got all the spars glued into place. The cuts in the foam was too wide on one panel and I used some balsa to fill the gap.
This build is progressing very slowly due to the use of PVA glue when interfacing with the foam, which has very long curing time. I contemplated the use of Polyurethane glue, but I am worried that the expansion properties will cause issues.
With 8 sheets of balsa to be glued next (4x Leading Edge and 4x Trailing Edge), it is by some margin the least productive use of time I had on a kit build... Minutes to set up and apply the glue and 24 hours waiting time.






Cheers,
