Default RE: A question about bolt together planes

I just put the tail section on my H9 Pulse XT 60, and I noticed that when tightening down the nuts, it's hard to get a feel on the proper torque value without crunching the tail end of the fuse. So I did both. 30 minute epoxy and the bolts. I tightened the nuts down enough to get epoxy spooge and am about to loosen the nuts when the epoxy cures so as not to cause undo stress on the airframe.
