How the mounting system works. 'A' is the wing mounting platform on the fuselage. 'A2' is the wing surface that will rest on the platform 'A'. Two balsa strips the thickness of the platform are glued on both sides of 'A2' spaced the width of 'A'. 'A3' are strips slightly wider and are glued on top of the strips at 'A2', with the overlap towards the center of the wing.

A little cleaner installation and easier to accomplish and no more rubber bands.

Latest mod for the CloudBuster and super CB is changing the method of the attachment of the flying surfaces. Before the wings were held on with rubber bands. Now they slide into position.

But it flys better with a new tailboom. The darkened shade of the aircraft during a late afternoon flight reminds me that about the time of these pictures, I learned an important lesson in finishing these airplanes. As Bill Parker points out, our humid climate and thinned Elmers white glue don't get along very well. My favorite adhesive and finish for models is thinned Elmers. Flying these models in damp weather often resulted in a limp and slightly tacky covering. So we tried spraying the model with a couple or more coats of rattle can clear polyurethane from the local hardware store. It very slightly darkens the tissue cover and exposed wood, but it greatly improves the all weather flying ability of the models.
