[rebel-builders] Moose / Super Rebel Wing layout ?

[Nigel Smith]

Thanks to everyone that replied to this thread. To recap for anyone else
with an Elite - the layout is the same as the Moose, but the instructions
from MAM are a bit vague and the spar extension should be off the second
stringer aft of the main spar on the upper surface, which lines up with the
first stringer back from the spar on the lower surface.
Most people have also extended all stringers rather than the few shown in
the instructions, and done that by overlapping the extension and the
stringer by a couple of rivets, rather than using a splice as in the
instructions.
Thanks again

Hi Guys
Just about to start fitting the MAM Droop tips to my Elite Wings, but the
only info from MAM for the installation is based on a Moose.
Just to clarify the instructions, can any Moose owner tell me if the Moose
wing is the same layout as the Elite wing which is :
Top Surface front to back - front spar/4 stringers/main spar/4
stringers/Rear Spar ?
Bottom Surface front to back - front spar/2 stringers/main spar/2
stringers/rear spar ?
The only place where a top and bottom stringer align is aft of main spar,
2nd upper stringer back aligns (roughly) with 1st lower stringer back ?
Hope that makes sense - a photo direct to nigel at airnig.co.uk would be
much appreciated.
Thanks, and I'll compile an Elite set of instructions and post to the files
area when I get it finished :-)

I think I overlapped the stringers by 5 rivets each, if I recall correctly
