Today I spent two and a half hours getting started on the wings, and for more than half of that time I just stared at the plans wrapping my brain around how everything will go together. The Waiex B-model comes with pre-assembled wing spars, which will save a ton of time. There are still several parts that I'll need to bolt to the spars, however, before I can start attaching ribs. The airframe kit doesn't come with hardware, and Sonex isn't selling complete B-model hardware kits yet, so I think I'm just going to order the nuts and bolts that I need to complete this part now so I can get started. Then I'll order the rest of the hardware later.
Correction! Sonex just started selling the B-model hardware kits a couple weeks ago. I'm still going to just order the hardware I need for now though since it's only a few dollars, and the complete hardware kit is over $1300!
