Tlme now to say goodbye to the false spars, and let the real ones take their place. I kind of like the design here, with a root rib, and a stabilizing section. Without them, the spar section would be very flimsy indeed:
The longer box-section spars are built hollow, kind of like boxes open at both ends, and shoved onto the underlying stiff section. The boxes are built tapered to help shape the wing thickness a good bit out towards the tip.
Above, the wings have already gone on. This is a type of work that I’ve got to become better at. Closing the wings, and creating a smooth, unwrinkled leading edge, plus a non-twisted wing, is something I’ve not yet mastered.
Just a few details left now, like the landing gear, tail skid, and main skid.
And of course, the all-important canopy. No idea how that shall turn out. I will try out a printed version first, and keep the crystal-clear tape method as plan B, like last time.
