You know, honestly, making the ribs, then laying the "skin" over top of it never occured to me! I does sound a lot better than my idea. The only reason I went with it is because I had some extra sheet plastic stock lying around from a previous project.
Thanks for the spar suggestion, too. Reading reviews on the internet of the kit, it was generally good, except for lack of any spars inside the wings. I would defenitly expect I would need to put something inside it.
It also makes wiring the engines easier using this method. (Yes, on top of everything else, I plan to motorize this puppy! I have my ordeal with
that posted in a different topic.) I just realized how difficult it would be to drill holes for the wires all the way through the thing using my method.
Thanks for the help!
