If we wanted to be really anal could mark stations every inch and use jigs to assure symmetry also.

  There are other inaccuracies in building that we cannot really address: slight wing to wing area differences, leading edge variations, trailing edge differences, different swell rates of the balsa sheeting used,  etc. We are building with foam, balsa wood and fiberglass,  none of these are known for their stability. You can beat one area to death like incidence, but have no control over some of the others, so I'm with Ron, get it close, and trim till you like it.

    Lets remind potential new pattern pilots reading this list,  that there are a lot of good flying
    birds out there that were set up by eyeball and rulers.   With a bit of trmming, they fly
    fine and can be competitive.
