Hi there again. I am now starting on my Banshee and had just a quick question about the wing. I was looking at it, and realized I did not like the wingtips. This as mentioned earlier will be my first dope/silkspan model, and think it would be easier to cover the flat wingtips. If this is possible, should I use 1/4" balsa for the tips? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Gor for it! Wingtips don't fly.

Get a copy of the "Fancherized Twister" article....all of the wing stuff applies, as well as the tips for strengthening....a terrific piece.

See Ya

If you want to build today, you can go ahead and make the tips square or squarish.
