RE: Securing wing halves?
Yes (and yes.) The 1/16 balsa is at a 45 to the 3/32 outer sheet. And its a Patriot 3D.
The plans also call for hooks and rubber bands to secure the wings just ahead of the wing tube. Since I want the fuel tank on top of the wing tube, I went with the bolt where the front adjuster would normally be. (...how's that for staying on topic)
