How are people finding the rear wing. Someone mentioned it was a bit tricky so was wandering what everyone else thinks. I have not received pack 2 yet so don't know myself.

Personally I found it pretty simple. Much easier than the MP4-23. I did steal someones idea of using a right angle to get it all straight which helps.

how did you go about gluing it. not sure about using the ema liquid as you have to hold the pieces in place and let it run into the join and was just worried that the black paint on the end plate would desolve as seems to happen when using the ema.

I used a cocktail stick to apply a little bit to both contact areas. On the end plate I joined the dots with a thin line and its holding so far.

Anyone who has done the 4/23 rear wing will find this much easier! LOL

I am just assembling my rear wing and I certainly agree!! BigGrin

I use this glue for most of my assemblies, it's not runny and the needle dispenser makes it very easy to apply in small amounts, avoiding the dreaded overrun:-

I've already suffered a glue attack on the nose cone, which required a replacement part, so I'm not taking any more chances!!
