RE: Build thread for a Carl Goldberg Eagle II Trainer??
I started the wing joining process. I prefer to take it slow doing one joiner at a time. If nothing else it allows me to get a good fillet on that one joiner since the other is not in place and I have access inside. I also added a ply brace not in the instructions to the trailing edge area to help stiffen that connection. When thiis is dry i will add the dihedral brace to the other side of the main spars and balsa block to the trailing edge for the rear bolts. I'm going to leave the top sheeting off from the main spar forward for now so I have access to install / fit the dowel once the fuselage is completed.
I read the instructions for the fuse and it should go together real quick since it's all ply sheet sides, top and bottom with alignment tabs and lightening holes.
Pic1 is adding the rear brace. The balsa block at the rear is grooved and just for protection so I didn't crush the rear trailing edge with the clamp. Pic2 is adding the main dihedral brace to one side. Pic3 is joining the two wings, Pic4 is creating the fillet on the one dihedral brace. The fillet is shown not fully running the lenght but I fixed that as well as the gaps between the main spars.
This is the first wing I have built where the shear webs did not butt against each rib tightly and I thoiguht this strange but that's how it is on the plans.
