No problem. I was all worried about the wing and motor pylon on my
Micro Drake until I started to think about it more rationally. The
original plan was to notch the wing for the pylon, so it could carry
down into the fuselage and anchor everywhere. Once I notched the
wing, it started to feel so floppy I gave up that idea. I cut the
wing apart, trimmed the roots for a full LE to TE butt joint, and
glued it to the top of the fuselage which is less than 1/2 an inch
wide at that point. The pylon is simply a piece of thick Zepron edge
glued on top of the wing.
