Default Wing twisting?

Im building a Laser 3 D 40 Aerobat. Everything is going smoothly but i have noticed now that im almost done with the wing that it has twisted about 1/4 of an inch. Is there anything that can be done to fix this? Im still new at this kit building, so any info would be appreciated. Thanks Ed

Default Use the monocote!!

One of the easiest way's to fix a warp is to heat the monocote up and twist the wing the opposite way. When the monocote cools, it should hold the wing in place. I have not had to use this yet, but I've heared some success stories from some that have.
