Outboard Wing Panels

The OWP simply require the modeler to add the wing tip blocks: I used aliphatic glue for the job and I then sanded them to shape with the ailerons in place.



The rest of the assembly involves both the inboard and outboard panels.

First I wanted to enlarge the holes in the ribs so I could install some paper tubes to route the servo wires.



I used a Dremel tool fitted with a snake extension:



I then planned how to mount the wing servos: each 645MG is secured to a 2mm thick G10 hatch with hardwood blocks epoxied in place:



The sheeting is then removed and an inner 1/16" birch-ply frame is epoxied to the sheeting from the inside (see previous pics):



Four hardwood blocks are then added at the corners to better support the screws that hold the hatch in place (see following pics).
