So I'm still in progress on the wing construction for my modified S1SS and I wanted to see what methods and tooling you guys are using while building to ensure you have straight and correct wings. I've seen posts about folks with wings that have twisted and I want to make sure this doesn't happen. Mine are flat tip wings with 2/3 span ailerons. (I just brought them inboard one more rib space) Any home made jig options to help?
