If everythig is alined and it won't go in, the front and rear drag pins need
more grease! The swivelling pins with the groove on them have a very short
and steep taper, and the spring fingers inside the receptacle on the fuse
are strong. A good viscous grease like wheel bearing grease works better
than white lithium. My new favorite (Thanks Larry "01") is Radio Shack
lubricating gel. I have not tried STP or Motor Honey but they might work
even better. They are liquid and harder to handle though. The part about
centering the right spar in the left spar box opening is critical.

Perfect practice makes perfect performance--
Best of luck

We do check all the pins and their mating bushings before trying to get
them
to mate. The frustrating thing is that they all look just fine but the
wing
will still refuse to go in. I have tried (due to frustration) to wiggle
the
wing fore and aft and up and down but that never helps at all
