6. Installation of the wing tube and wing adjuster is the next step. The location of the wing tube must be finalized before the rudder servo mount and the carbon rod cross brace can be correctly set. I added the carbon/ply supports joining the fuselage sides and the wing tube. They are not included in the kit. I guess just a creature of habit. I have checked the tube location molded into the fuselage and so far all looks fine. I am using the provided scribe marks on the fuselage for wing and stab incidence. I’ll take a final check between wing and stab incidence and make certain wing and stab tips are of equal distance before final install. I can’t get over how fast this kit builds. Total work time to this point 6 hrs. Looks like a rainy weekend. This airplane could be ready for initial radio set up by Monday.
7. The wing tube is tacked glued at this point. Wing tube and wing is level with the fuselage. Stabs are next. The stab tubes are already set in the stab and the location on the fuselage is also marked. I have been very careful while cutting out the area in the fuselage for the location of the stab tube. I am adding plywood donuts around the stab tubes for extra support and piece of mind. They are not included in the kit and probably not needed as the fuselage itself should provide enough support. Again something I have grown accustom to.
