Default Wing Joining...Part 2

Hey guys, so I just went and joined the wings...it went better than the last time...in which I didn't even get the joiner on the other half all the way, but along alot of the top of the wing joint, there's a gap about 2/32". Is this a problem, should I fill it in with epoxy? Right now I'm letting it try till tomorrow. Also, with regard to alignment, It looks like I got it right, but I just want to know how important it is; for example what happens if it turns out it's off a slight amount?

Thanks for your patience guys,
Tom

1/16" shouldn't make any difference....Is this a trainer?
Check the flight characteristics. If there's a pronounced roll that minor trimming can't take care of, realignment would be necessary. It would really help to know the type of plane.

Sure thing, it's a Sig Kadet LT-40 ARF Trainer. Thanks
