RE: Stinger Build Thread
The wing was vacuum bagged last night.
Several have never sheeted a wing so the next few frames will show more detail than normally given.
Begin by sizing the skins approximately 1/4" wider on the front, back, and width of wing shuck.
The skins on the Stinger are 1/16" thick balsa. Light weight balsa is strong enough for the Thunder Tiger Pro 40 powered racer. You can also use medium if you prefer.
The balsa was cut to size and held together with masking tape. There is no need to glue the sheets together as the wing sheeting epoxy will glue the entire assembly in later steps.
