Wing looks nice and strong without being heavy.
Before covering you could give it a light rub down with fine sandpaper mounted on a sponge, so that you get a mirror smooth finish on the covering. What will you use? Monokote?
Best wishes.

Thanks Ankur Bhai - This is my First Balsa Build and your initial guidence to motivate me in this hobby.

Thanks Iyer Sir for kind words - I did some light sanding on wings  ( 400 Grit ) , still it require sanding , pl suggest ? I am using covering from Lotus Hobby ( white and Green ).

Pics of Complete Fuse with Wing. Some small adjustments need to be completed before covering. Pl suggest, If can drill my fuse to reduce significant weight without affecting the strength.

Left TIP is inclined down very minutely; does it affect the flying characteristics?

Don't wake a Tiger until you've factored the teeth



Before drilling the fuse try a mock assembly to see where the CG will fall.

Then don't do anything!

3/4"from the LE seems odd BTW. Should be around the spar I would have thought

@mjet
1. As Rai saheb says, CG at 3/4" from LE is wrong. Pl recheck manual (available on internet)
tiger2 manual says CG should be between three and a half inches to four and three eighth inches back from LE

2. Even a slight twist in the wing is equal giving a lot of aileron control. If not corrected, will make the model roll to one side on takeoff. Temporarily stick a 1/8 square strip of balsa about 20" long to each wingtip, and see if they are parallel. If not, you will have to steam the twisted wing in steam from a pressure cooker, twist to correct and hold till cool. It will work only for small twist, as these 'D tube' wings are quite rigid.

3. Feel the surface with a finger for imperfections, especially at joints. Sand with the sandpaper attached to a sponge. After steaming (and cooling) final light sanding will be needed, as some fibres will become visible.

BE VERY CAREFUL AS STEAM ON YOUR HANDS CAN BURN THEM BADLY!
Regards.

@mjet
Your description is not clear.
'Right wingtip is up side' what does this mean?
At the leading edge or trailing edge?
Please verify that the angle of attack is the same at both wingtips, as suggested earlier.

You didn't say anything about the CG  Huh?

Sir, please see the photographs and suggest for wing Tip.
One month back I checked the CG with all parts and now I am Confused, so can’t tell you about the CG measured at that time , was it ¾ or 3 -3/4 ? You are correct, that CG should be 3-3/4   Apx or Near to Spar, as Sanjay Saheb said.

If it is slightly bent like dihedral, no problem.
But if it is bent up at the LE, and bent down at the TE, it will be like an aileron. If so, then better to cut off and rebuild the tip. Or have a model with a permanent tendency to roll.

That wing tip is fine. Don't worry.

CG - if you checked it (and you are an experienced builder) and moved forward, obviously it must have been at 3 3/4", or you would have actioned corrective procedures
