Thanks guys!

 

How do you find the wing fit? I'm too frightened to push mine fully home in case I can't get them out again!

 

Jim, I taped off the wing attachment tabs on mine while painting because I noticed they were a very tight fit straight out of the box. Have test fit everything a couple times since painting and it takes some wiggling and effort to remove the wings now as well.

 

Even with the tight fit, the wings are so long and heavy that they have a tendency to droop. Going to attach mine with tube glue and let the whole thing dry upside down overnight using the box as a jig in the hope that the wings will come out nice and straight. Looking at photos, wings on the real planes could get a bit wonky, but from the factory they were more or less without dihedral or anhedral.
