Elfe S3: progress on the plug and the first wing joiner

Our plug builder Richi has been working hard over the holidays and made good progress on the plug for the Elfe S3. Earlier this week he dropped it off at our airfoil designer Georg so that he can prepare the connections for the elevator and the wings to the fuselage.

During the holidays Georg also modified our standard wing joiner mould, decreasing the dihedral to 1 degrees – which we will be building into the root of the wing in addition to the dihedral halfway through the wing. Today I used the mould to build the first wing joiner. See the separate “how to” post on how we build our wing joiners.
