The very similar World Models Ultimate ARF comes with the center cabane struts already mounted.
I've got two of the World Model Ultimates and none of the sturts are already mounted.
Oh... I was sure I had read that somewhere. Guess I was mistaken. Did your instruction manual make you aware of the marked holes in the fuse sides for the cabanes?
Now, they did pre-insert the hinges btw. And you'd best inspect before gluing to insure that each one lines up. A number of them were stuck way into one side and very little in the other.
The generic Ultimate hinges were inserted, but the hinge slots were off center on two of the ailerons. It only took a couple of minutes to cut new slots. The depth was good.
Good flying,
