Wild Tiger Re-Wing

Stock has 0 shear webs. I think I'm gonna do at least partial on the inside bay on this thing to help hold the spars at the right angle, its tweaked right now and I think its gonna easier to splice into the main spars than try to completely cut them out and replace
Looks like this one was done with carbon tow not strips maybe, and I think the carbons intact enough
Lol I figure this place needs content so I'll provide what I've got...
Repair stuff probably actually pretty useful for people to see I guess, too little of it being done so people assume it can't be or isn't worth it

Get yourself a couple of straight 3/8" dowels to align the ribs.
Did that! The jig setup will make this much easier to rebuild in place!
Would be even easier if the dowel holes were above or below the tube so I could strick them through the intact wing to keep it all aligned, but mot sure if it would fit that way. I may still rip some covering off the bottom of the good wing so I can set it on the alignment jig too
Thanks! Can I get by with 3003s or something on ailerons on this thing with conservative throws? You or someone posted somewhere about blowback issues after going to a .46
It has some Spektrum digitals in the tail that should be fine but the missing wing didn't have a servo so I gotta come up with a pair of something...
