On 26 June, the seventh workday, we added diagonal elements to the upper and lower wings to increase their rigidity. We also started setting washi paper to the lower wings. Unlike the rudder and elevator, these wings were not flat, so we struggled to stick the washi without sagging. We also completed the ailerons, which we had started to make last week. The ailerons will be connected to the main wing with tape in the next week. Also, as soon as the upper wing washi is finished, the upper and lower wings will be connected and the central axis of the fuselage will be fixed. 7回目の作業となる6月26日では、上下の翼にに斜めの部材を加えて剛性を高める加工をしました。また下翼に和紙を貼り始めました。ラダーやエレベータと違って平面ではなかったため、和紙を弛ませずに貼るのに苦戦しました。また先週作り始めていたエルロンも完成しました。主翼側に補強用の部材も組み込んだので、次週はテープでエルロンを主翼と繋げます。また、上翼の和紙が貼り終わり次第上翼と下翼を連結し、機体の中央軸を固定する予定です。
