Default RE: Oxai E-Pinnacle Build

The wing is a composite construction with some balsa and carbon fiber internal construction. The wing is not painted in the mold but finished in a traditional way with paint after construction. The ailerons and elevators are center hinged. All hinging is already done.
The servo cutouts are in but need to be lined if wanted. Something to screw the servos into needs to be added to the molded in flanges.

I tried to photograph the wing internals. Not sure how well it came out. As far as I know the regular Pinnacles have traditional foam core wings. I am not sure if all of the new planes will have composite wings or just the electric versions.

The wing and stab fit to the fuse is excellent. A roll of self stick foam tape is included in the parts bag which I assume is for lining the stab and wing roots
