It's often best to make up the combined brass boxes for the fuselage with the wings joined together as the epoxy cures. The boxes extend into the wing root fairing and are trimmed off at the end of the process...

Re: BERGFALKE IV CABRIO 1:4.7 SCALE
The ailerons are fairly simple: just built over the plan. Then it's time to fettle the winglets. (These at least are scale, as there is one Bergfalke 4 on the 'net fitted with them)

In a last-minute decision I decided to fit the spare Turnigy G32 that I had lying about. (A wise move as it later turned out)

Re: BERGFALKE IV CABRIO 1:4.7 SCALE
I've used my usual finishing method: Solartex and 2k paint on the fuselage, and HK film on the flying surfaces...
