FT Cub with 100% less rubber bands

thingiverse

Because several people asked how I achieved this, here are the modified FT Cub files. The wings are mounted on four points with two holes each. The wing mount fits snugly inside and is secured by any object that fits. I used BBQ sticks but you can also use M3 screws (or anything else with a 3mm diameter). To get the best fit, glue the "Wing main connection body" part inside the fuselage as shown in the pictures and insert the part named "Wing Mount" into it. Then position the wing on top of the mounts and mark where the mounts should go in the wing. I will be honest; my holes don't line up perfectly, but even with eight small BBQ sticks the wing won't move at all. As for the strut-like features outside, they are purely to give it a more Piper Cub appearance. You can use any object that fits into the 3mm hole to make this work. Just ensure you have the ability to remove the four struts connecting the entire thing to the body; otherwise, the whole removable wing concept doesn't make sense.
