latest
The latest I have has hidden bolts to attach wings, no more cinch pins, i also have a one piece fuselage. Tank and uat separate. The rubber tank stopper is crap. 2 of mine had the 3rd hole open and leaked fuel upon filling. Inspect, or replace. Pilotrc may not build 1 piece fuselages anymore due to cost to ship/handle long crate.

Is this even a 2.2M Predator? If that clamp you are showing is for the wing, you have an old version. The stab still uses a clamp on the front of the stab but rear threads in with a bolt at the elevator cutout. Wing attaches with a bolt horizontally through the LE and another in the back through the flap cutout.
Also, the canopy bolt is recessed. Yours doesn't appear to be.

Definitely 2.2 meter the main wing has a clamp at the front and another clamp at the rear can't get pictures of rear clamp as it is awkward to get at, the early Predators had a single clamp of flat bar to hold main wing on, yes the latest Predators have screws front and rear. The stab has clamp at front and a screw at rear at elevator. Have recessed canopy screw myself think the older Predator had a spring latch same as turbine hatch.
