Hi guys
On stage 18 the 2 wing rib g’s are different sizes. Can anyone tell me if the thicker rib goes on the top or bottom of the wing?
Thanks Gray

Hi Gray, BigGrin

Hope this helps.

The wing tip ribs that go on the top of the wing tip are the ones supplied in stage 17. The wing tip ribs supplied in stage 18 go on the underside. (This is as stated in the official build diary).

Now if you`ve been unfortunate to get them mixed up then the taller ribs A-F and G are the upper ones. Almost twice as high as the lower ones.

If they are in the correct position then, rib G should be flush with ribs A-F where they intersect.

I`ve added a pic showing the top ribs of my wing to show how it should look.

Like I say, hope this helps.

Regards
