We have developed specifically for this model, a new system to retain the wings (see photos below). The aircraft can now be assembled and taken apart very quickly on the field, without the use of screws or collets to keep the wings against the cabin top. This system has also eliminated the old problem of wing movement against the fuselage. We have also incorporated the use of these units in other aircraft.
