Estes Lynx, Kit #7233, Build Part 6, Gluing up Fins and Grain Fill



The wing halves, rudder and wing stabs are glued together.
Hold the pieces at 90 degrees on a sanding block to get some square gluing edges.







The rudder and forward strake are glued flat on a straight edge.

The wing halves are glued together.



The forward stabs and wing stabs are the same size and shape.







To apply CWF filler, the small vanes were stuck on some tape to hold them.
I didn't have to hold them, CWF was simply brushed over the sides and top.

    1. Hi Daniel,
      It's really a great design, the wing fins are not your normal 3FNC model. The small engine vanes and intake tubes are the challenge.
