Subject: | Re: Fitting wings to fuse |
Yeah I just put my wings on.
In the end I had a water level on the fuse, a water level from wingtip
to wing tip, two tape measures from wingtips to tail, a string from
wingtip to wingtip for the 75mm, horizontal laser level for fuse and
tail and a digital level for incidence. No bubble levels.
It took a long long time.

I found some info in the list archive that indicates that the incidence
angle should be zero. One builder indicated that he have to lower the front
of the horizontal stab by 1/2 inch.
It took most of the day but I got the wings and horizontal stab mounted. My
water level came in real handy.
