Estes Alien Invader #3003 Build, Part 10, Wing Prep



Here's the main wing after primer and sanding.
Notice the leading and outside edges where the primer was sanded down for better adhesion and fillets.




The body tube fin areas were also scraped for better adhesion.







I noticed too late that the bottom "root" edges of the small part K fins needed to be filled. The center area will be seen between the front and rear of the main wing sections.

I had to stop and brush some CWF on the open area.



The "K" pieces were hit with primer/filler and sanded smooth.

Now they can be glued to the front and rear wing using the wing pattern sheet guide.
