Primodus,

You copycat...[:-] LOL

So how did she fly? I will be taken mine out for her maiden this weekend, if the weather hols up. They are forecasting a 30-40% chance of rain. And down here in New Orleans, when the chances get up to that lelvel you can bet that it will rain. But knowing me, I will still go out to the field and try to put her up whenever I can .

How did your wing-fuselage gap end up? Did you do anything to secure the trailing edge to the fuselage side? I drilled a hole on each side of the fuselage, just behind the rear dowel, and into the root rib on each wing. I tapped the hole for a 1/4 x20 nylon bolt. I reinforced the threads with some thin CA. I think that this should be more than enough to hold the trailing edges to the fuselage.

Get some pics up here of your recovered wings (again COPYCAT... LOL).

Later
