Default world models p47

I am building a world models 70" p47. I am trying to get the wing halves fitted together. the bottom of the wing fits together very nicley. the top half of the wing the leading and trailing edge of the wings are touching in the center of the wing there is a .085" or almost a tenth of an inch gap. The right wing half sets forward of the left wing half by .091". the wing has locating pins and a wing tube joiner that locates the wing halves together so there is not a lot that I can do about that but what about the gap on the top of the wing. the dihedral of the wing is correct now.

thanks for the help.

I've had this happen on more than one arf. I just fill in the gap with some epoxy since it wont be seen since its under the fuselage.

No, the wing wont know any difference. Filling it with epoxy actually makes it stronger.
