Yes. Since adjusters are becoming scarce, only rear adjusters were put on. The other 2 in my kit will be on the BM2.2. I then put 1/4 - 20 studs just behind the rear adjusters and up front where the front adjuster was supposed to be to hold the wing to the body. I don't like jesus screws in the wings. Flew the maiden flight yesterday. Flies great. Now we have to go through the long trimming process.

{edit: And that new bottom saved a bunch of weight. That and no wheel pants (it won't fit in my car with wheel pants) kept the plane at 9lb - 12oz.}
