Got the wing tips installed and shaped.

I made a bit of an error here!!!! After I epoxied the wing tip blocks to the wing I sat down at my computer to review some VooDoo pics of the wing tips. DOH!!! I had completely forgot that I wanted to cut my own block that would be square!!!!!
It was too late to remove them. So I McGivered the tips to make them square at the TE like the real VooDoo!!!!
I then shaped the wing tips. I think they came out pretty darn symmetrical considering I eyeballed the shape and curvatures!!
I will fill that small gap at the TE when I do the final sanding before covering.

Re: 50cc P51 Mustang Voodoo Air Racing Build

The wing is pretty much done!!!!

All that remains is to install the servos (done after covering), install the cooling inlet (done when I reach that stage on the fuse build) and then the final surface prep and sanding (done just before I cover the wing).

Tomorrow I start the fuselage!!!!!!!

It is funny that you mention the screws!!!
I searched high and low for a screw small enough that I could counter sink!!! I finally found some as you can see in the picture!
Last night I was moving some wood around in the kit box and the VERY SMALL bag of hardware caught my eye. I picked it up and inspected it closer. WOW... they had included the screws I had bought!!!! DOH!!!
This kit is so cheep that I never thought to look to see if they included the needed screws!! LMAO!!!!
