Personally, I was going to the local abatoir for some old horse hoofs to boil down and make some proper glue

but for ease of use i suppose epoxy sounds like a good idea.

Wing leading edge should definitely be rounded.
It probably makes little difference what glue you use, but the instructions for these Gruner kits usually have pictures of the type of glue recommended next to the description. As for the instructions, I have Microsoft translator installed on my phone...just point the phone at the instructions and you're done.

For those that are interested I managed to find this build thread, it looks as if the design has changed a little bit, but you get the general idea

Mike advises use of

Microsoft translator

Google translate does a reasonable job too, you just cut and paste the text into a box on their page and wait for some rather quaint English to appear. Give it a try

I thought this was going to be a Winter Group Build but Chris has obviously skirted all that and will be ready to fly this Autumn, probably Saturday. Don't worry about the wind you'll be fine. ;)

Just got to sheet the top, which I will do after I have fitted the rear fin, give it all a good sand and the build is done

Hopefully cover it and fit the electrics Saturday

Did the translate app prove useful?
