Scale Rodel Model Cessna 182 Skylane

[TonyHallo]

It looks like part 30 was glued on backwards, the bevel on 30 should match the rib profile.

Tony, I put a piece of trinagle stock underneath 30, it seemed to fix the issue. Anyone seen a wing that has part of it not sheeted like this? I plan on using Ultracoate or something similar. Any suggestions on what type of covering to use?

 

[TonyHallo]

There is another option called Neucover sold by Value Hobbies, never use it but have good things about it

Tony, do you know how I can fix this problem? The front of the wing will not sit flush with the fuselage side. The picture shows the gap towards the front. Its about a 5mm

I would finish the wing, mount the wing with plastic wrapping film install on the wing, then fill the gap a Bondo like product or epoxy thickened with microballoons and chopped fibers. You will want to add dams around the wing dowels and bolts to prevent sticking. Here is a photo of the Cherokee wing, I did the opposite, plastic film on the fuselage, installed the wing, I used Superfil to fill the gap. Superfil is a thickened epoxy product. You can do the wing of the fuselage, your choice. If you do the wing, make sure to use something easy to sand.
