All,
I'm just getting back into this after about 30 years of modeling inactivity. So please bear with the dumb rookie questions.
The Roden Dr1 is the kit I'm working on. Engine is going together without too many problems, although it sure isn't looking as good as some of the other examples I've seen on other builds.
My question is more about the wing assemblies. I noticed the trailing edge on each wing piece is pretty thin. Like almost see-through. And what I was afraid of has happened. The adhesive I'm using at the moment is Plastruct Bondene. It's the only one the local hobby shop had. If you can call 35 miles away local.
Could be I used too much of the stuff, or maybe I should be using CA, or some other adhesive. I can probably save it, but there's a fair bit of distortion along the trailing edge to the point where the scallops between ribs is not uniform as it was before applying the adhesive. I can most likely clean it up with sandpaper and a dowel, and considering it's for my grandson, I doubt he'll notice. But for future reference I'd like to avoid this.
Any suggestions on an adhesive to use here?
Again, sorry for the rookie question. It's been a long time.
Thanks,
Kurt
