Default RE: Goldberg Extra....again

I guess the balsa also expands and contracts too. I just cannot understand how both of the outside wing ribs shrank exactly the same 1/8 inch or all of the rest expanded exactly the same amount.

Also, the wing saddle not fitting the wing has nothing to do with the plans, just manufacturing. The conversion from die cut parts to laser cut and milled parts leaves much to be desired. Scanning the plans or whatever process that was used did not work very well and as I said before, CG has obviously never actually built one of these new kits or they would correct the errors.

Anyway, if I had it to do over again, I would have tried to find an old kit also or better yet, just not crashed the previous one.
