Scale 1/3 Scale Extra 330L Build.

@TonyHallo
Yes increased the size of tha ailerons by 1 inch. Just from reading articles on the plane in general they all like the rudder as is, they would like a little more throw therefore added a double bevel to the elevator to get more throw and that automatically add 3/8 to the elevator. But most said that the ailerons were a little lazy so added 1 inch to the full length of the ailerons and a double bevel.
Yes added extra sheeting 1 1/2 inches behind the main spar to pick the two extra spars that were added to the plane. 1/4 by 1/8 bass wood spars top and bottom and added shear webs to the new spars. The shear webs were glued to the two new spars and wing tube to tie everything together. First there are no shear webs to speak of from the root to the end of the tube and the original top spar barely touches the wing tube. This was also done because I have read that there were a couple of wing failures on the plane so I was not taking any chances. Also if look at the end of the wing tube and the area after the tube were the wing continues is not a good connection at that location the design is very weak in my opinion .

Got one of the blocks mounted into the aileron. Took a little work but it is in and fits good now just have to get the other three done. One thing I did learn if the Gorilla glue is older than 6 months get rid of it and get some new stuff.
If you look at the picture you can see how the glue has spread into the foam, that should hold pretty good.

All the ailerons turned out good and are done except for the holes for the hinge pins. Will do that later just before the plane is covered.
So the only thing left is the fuselage to build.

Could not agree more with everyone on your building skills and what I have seen from your past planes your finish work ain't to shabby. But for a confused person I'm really . Four ailerons?
