Heinkle re-do. The original wing ribs were so "punky" that shrinking the tissue compressed them into "S" curves giving warps that could not be steamed out. The model was unflyable. There were some other weakness in the fuselags, part because of the soft wood and part because of the design, even after I added some reinforcement. I tore the coveing off and did some re-engineering with stronger wood. The model is now going back together, warp free, and stronger, but seems. from weighing the components, to have only gained a couple of grams. Weather premitting, flight tests next week.
