Done with the aileron and basically done with the flap. Just need to do some more sanding on the flap leading edges. No surprises here.

Pics skip back and forth from aileron to flap.

Been too busy building the other wing!
This morning:

Sand and test fit each rib the tube sleeve goes through.

Much easier to do now than later:

Saved the ugly spar for last. Picture is bad. But that this is all over the place. Tamed it with glue.

Tube sleeve in place. Time for bed.

I'm digging it. Finally looked at the product page for this thing. Actually seems like a pretty fair price for the size model it is and all the stuff that comes with it.

Busted out the hardware bags and first step is installing the blind nuts opposite of the laser etching.
30min epoxy and a little tap tap in place. Fits like a glove. Very satisfying.
Will have to trim the blind nuts near the boarder of the bulkheads in a couple spots.

It’s important to read he manual and verify each step. The online color manual was a big help with orientation and fitment.
