It is recommended to insert the tube into the wing to guide the butt plate, which is more accurate. 

The line slot of early product also need to be widened to let the the extending line with plug directly into the fuselage.

motor.

As the airframe is designed to be very wide, you can easily put your FPV equipment down, and separate the transmitter and 

receiver. 
Fixing the wing is also very simple, just a screw, of course, if you don't trust this construction, you can also use a nut to butt. 

Fix the winglets with two 3 x8 screws, with the purpose of a long- term usage of the layer plate, it is suggested that 

consolidating the screw hole with CA glue before twist the screw.
