A Clean work Table<\/strong><\/p>\n

Wing Plans and Pieces, the Elio X Build is a little different then the Elio as the stab set, rudder, and wing tip panels are larger. In case your following alongthe Elio X Build is\u00a0 not quite as described in the elio.html file and the tip panel build can be found here<\/p>\n

Tip Panels Elio X<\/a><\/p>\n

More on Tip Panels<\/a><\/p>\n

Watch your drawings especially for the wings , I like to mark the rib location on the bottom spars and some of the filler sheeting, that way one wing is like the other. Also pre – cutting to length of the lower spar will define the length of the inboard panels as well.<\/p>\n

Some lines are also not straight on plans , thus setting the spar against a 48 Inch straight level is helpful<\/p>\n

And some more pictures, lots of detail here.\u00a0 Looking really good , a little hiccup with the LE I supplied the wrong LE, but with a little forethought a strip of spruce on the underside was all that was needed.<\/p>\n

Sept 10<\/p>\n

Some more tip panel details, they can be joined to the inner panels at this point but if the inner panels still are not configured for join to fuselage then it’s easier with panels then with a complete wing<\/p>\n

\"\"

A good time to clean the table, take stock and consider what’s next. A Dark Brown Ale\u00a0 also works well at this time \ud83d\ude42<\/p><\/div>\n
