Estes Puma #7256 Build, Part 6, Wing Gluing, More CWF Filling





Be sure to clean out the glue out of the slots on the wing before it sets up. The vertical stabilizer needs to fit all the way into the slots.
The even bead of glue from the last post makes a cleaner glue joint underneath the wing. It's nearly impossible to get a glue fillet under the wing at the body tube joint, so I don't even bother with it.

I will do a "fillet" at the front at back at the top without going too far out from the center.


The small forward wings, engine vanes and forward strake were stuck to a piece of masking to brush on some CWF. They are too small to be held in your hand.

Let them dry, flip them over and paint the other side.
