Unknown parts in Tiny Trainer kit

[beardlesslumberjack]

Recently had to buy another kit for the tiny trainer since the previous one crashed. There are a few parts in the kit im not familiar with. It comes with a wooden strip roughly 1 in x 6 inches. There are also thick steel wires that arent the push rods and don't have z bends in them. I can't find any mention of these in any build guides or build videos.

Any idea what they're for?

They might have put in the wrong hardware package. The wood piece is for wing reinforcements in some other models, and the thick wire is for landing gear.

They usually send extra parts and such, like my ft arrow kit had some landing gear wire and rubber bands, but it might also be the wrong size

That seems like a likely explanation. Thanks for the feedback Think the wood is worth inlcuding as diy reinforcement in the wing spar? my previous sport wing tended to bend at the midpoint.

Might as well do it

I would watch a build vid on how to bend the wire for landing gear...the popsicle sticks are for reinforcement for the gear. You can make wheels out of foam board
