 Original constructions plans from MS Composit will suggest placing all electrons on the bottom. However, I figured those would be safer on the upper side and changed the placing. The servos can still be inserted from the bottom after making cuts for the servo arms. The servo horns that come with the package need to be replaced if the placing is changed in this way. The curved black line visible in the picture is a bent carbon fiber plate that provides additional wing rigidity. Fiberglass tape has been used in leading surfaces for additional strength. Original constructions plans from MS Composit will suggest placing all electrons on the bottom.

-The original white molded plastic motor mount broke totally after about 150 flight. It had required glue several time before due to cracks but eventually that wasn't anymore enough. The plastic seemed to become brittle in cold weather and has since been replaced with a self made aluminium mount.+The original white molded plastic motor mount broke totally after about 150 flight.
