Got a bit more work done on the U2 replacement wings. Could of done a few things better. Will know next time. We live and learn. Not bad though for first vacuumed wings.
Servo bays cut and wire in place. I did it the lazy way.
Skins cut to size.
The the wing sandwich.
Glass cut and ready.
All wetted out.
Out of the vac bag.
After a bit sanding.
Leading edges glued and sanded. Ailerons and flaps cut free. Live hinges using peel ply. We see how they last.
