Building a depron foam wing

Long planned, finally started: a new wing

Using a JT-88 airfoil, supposed to produce high lift at low speed.

ribs on carbon tube fat profile Wing cover Wing and a CD massive weight JT-88

The straights in the profile help when applying pressure on the wing. This is only one half of the wing. Wingspan will be 130cm.

I am not sure how to connect the two wing halves. On the fuselage glueing the carbon tubes together with plywood worked best.

I will make sure that the main carbon tube of the second wing is not going to be at the same location so I can X them in the center section

The wing will have ailerons / flaperons

Conclusion: this attempt to build a wing is much more promising than the last one
