Hey Campy, how do you think it will perform on an uncambered wing? Will it have a tendency to pull from the ribs while shrinking it tight?
If the Solartex is going over ribs, it is probably going to pull away.
If you want it to stay with an undercambered wing, you will most likely have to sheet the underside. I did this on one plane. I sheeted the underside with 1/32" balsa and then put the Solartex on - it worked like a charm.
If you go this route, treat it the same way you would when covering a solid balsa surface - start at the center and work toward the edges.
