Estes Low Boom SST #7289 Build, Part 9, Wings & Tail Cone


I know, I've been bouncing around on this one - Back to the wings.

The wings and rudders were sprayed with filler/primer after they had a coat of CWF and sanding.
There are two rudders shown - I'm building two kits.




Note the mask for the jet engine support gluing area.






The shroud is long and narrow - You might want to scan and print up some extras on 110 lb. card stock.

I did my standard form in the heel of my hand using a dowel to curve the card stock.







TIP: For a smooth flow at the seam, put a curve in the gluing tab too. Use the dowel like on the shroud.
