I will add some gussets to the fuselage frame and a center beam at the wing spar line to carry the loads through. I don't know how anyone building it right out of the box could keep it together long enough to get it trimmed out. |

The inboard rib is angled in, 1/8 inch according to the plans to get the downward angle of the inner wing panels, I traced the angle of the front view drawing and made a guage, |

Glad that I checked before I took it of the board, Whoever drew it measured up from level in the front view, It is, indeed, 1-1/2 inches from level, but to get that dihedral from board level you have to prop up the wing tip to 3-3/4 inches. |
