master build

Relaxed flying p-38 😃

Strips applied. Almost ready to paint.

Strips will be applied here to blend glue seams.

Arrows point to scrap paper coated with 3M Super 77.

Ditto.

Checking fit of wing and stabilizers.

Main Wing complete less paint and servos.

Leading edges taped down until the glue sets.

Holding the bottom wing skin angle until it dries.

Having the tape holding the leading edge in place allows to bottom wing skin angle to line up so I can easily fold it back to apply glue to the spar. Much easier than dripping glue into the wing cavity trying to get it where it needs to go.

Bottom Skin Folded back to apply glue. Note the tape holding it in place. This will allow quick and easy skin alignment after glue applied.

Aligning the bottom skin and taping leading edge for fast alignment when glue applied.
