bottom surface of the wing overlap-
ping the center piece by about 1/8”.
Now add another piece down the cen-
ter of the leading edge again making
it two layers thick.
BF 109 tip
shown
Locate the templates in the back of
the instruction manual for the P-51
and BF109 wing tip shape. Using the
proper one for your plane, mark the
shape on the tip and cut to shape.
This is best done with a band saw.
This completes the construction of
the wing.
The best way to cover the wing is
with packing tape. Most local stores
only carry the clear and olive drab
colored tape. It is available in most
all colors. Lanier R/C stocks most
colors if you want to order them.
You can also cover the wing in rip
stop nylon available at your local
cloth shop. Some of the low heat
shrink films will work fine.
On the bottom of the wing start at
the trailing edge of the wing, not the
aileron. Flex the aileron down and
let the covering go around the trail-
ing edge. You can then start a piece
at the leading edge of the aileron
and cover it. Continue forward with
the tape to the leading edge. Since
the tip is not as wide as the root, you
will need to over lap more at the tip.
Let the tape over lap 1/4” at the
root and adjust at the tip .
We will cover the method used with
the packing tape since it is strong
and inexpensive.
