I am currently building the wing. When I was inserting the wing spar I found it very hard to rotate the spar and I was afraid I was going to twist it in half. So I to assist me I put my fingers in the wing tip and spread the upper and lower wing surfaces apart to allow me to rotate the spar. Then after the spar was in place, I noticed that about 2 inches of the trailing edge have a slight crease just in front of the where the upper and lower surfaces are glued together. Will this affect the flight performance of the plane?

Also, the instructions on how to assemble the wing explain how to assemble the left wing but the instructions on the bottom of the page 11 end without saying anything about how to assemble the right half of the wing. Is there an updated manual that lists how to assemble the right wing?

Thanks for any help in advance.

You follow the same process that you perform for the left side. No the crease will not affect a thing see this link for the updated manual- http://www.3dxhobbies.com/store/cart.php?page=manuals_and_specs
