So I started my bug construction this past week. So far I have copied the rib templates and I have them cut out. I am going to make an extra R1 rib and make the wing just a little bigger based on things I have read here. I am also going to carbon cap the ribs, mainly for practice for another project I am planning for a winter build. I made my own trailing edge pieces from some 3/8th rectangular stock I had. I am going to use a square carbon spar instead of a round one, it should make the wing a little stiffer. I will try to post some pictures along the way. Wayne
