The sight gauge would have to be set up outside of the cabin rather than inside due to the wing root design. I have not attached the wings to my fuselage yet, however, so it's hard determine if it's a feasable idea. If anyone else has tried it and found that it is not possible, please chime in.

In measuring the differences between the thickness of the spar and the small est width of each slot - I find one of the differences is .54mm and the ot her is .81mm. It is impossible to insert the wing spar onto the fuselage attachments. Is there any history of this problem on any of the 801's or 701's you have built or are building? If so - How did you resolve the pr oblem? - and - Was the spacing difference as large as mine appear to be? Thanks for your help.
