Default RE: Planes Plus Hotspot wing installation

Yes I glassed the wings and the verticals. I also put a strip of CF up the vertical fins for extra firmness. The wings are held on with a socket head screw from inside the wheel wells. They screw into a captive nut that I put into the wing. I brazed an extention onto the socket head screw for easy access from inside the wheel wells. I decided to use this method over the Graupner method. I did not like to see the bolt holes on the top of the wing.

I believe Todd W had something showing this set up in the past.
