TyBryner, you could easily glue the dowel to the fuse! I just elected to glue it to one wing. My resoning was that I took the airplane down a lot for transport. If I kept the Aluminum tube center section in the wing that the dowel was glued to, it would help to prevent breaking due to the aluminum joiner being longer would hit anythin before the dowel. Also, I did it at around midnight and probably wasn't thinking to clearly about a good enough reason and at least it sounded good at the time.

No I think that glueing it to a wing may be slightly better in case you actually break the dowel in transport with the wings off. Having to dril out one hole on the wings section may be easier than driiling out 2 holes on the fuse sides, just to replace the dowel.

Other than that, there really is no difference where you glue the dowel to, just so lons as it is secured in some way or another
