Awesome. Thanks!You will screw the L brackets to the wings, THEN screw the L brackets to the "scissor" brackets. It's absolutely do-able.

I know that Nexus-models produced an xwing kit that came with an adruino board to control lights and wing servo motors. His xwing may not be as accurate as this one is, but I heard some really good things about it, I think it's still one of the best available. But the guy is really hard to get hold of.Does anyone know if this automated X-Wing is being sold anywhere?

Nope! You will need to add them to the cross bar and THEN nest them into the hull... why do you want to add them after the hull is together, if you don't mind my asking?

I guess you could pin them, but the way I am planning on explaining on instructions, two screws will "self tap" and the other two will pass through and be held on with nuts inside the wing wells. Rock solid!

If you replaced the screws that hold the L brackets on with allen screws, you could do it after the fact. Just not enough room to get a screwdriver at the Philips heads once the hulls are together. Unless there is some fancy philips head screwdriver for tight 90º areas?

Replacing with allen screws is actually not a half bad idea... especially if you want to ship or transport the thing, lol
6-32 x 3/8” flat hex screws installed in the Reader armature. Plenty of room for a non-cut Allen wrench to fit.
That looks nice and clean. You should mention it to Mike Reader and maybe we can get those hex screws included with the upcoming armatures he's going to be making for us.

This is great! It will be so nice to be able to paint all the parts without having the wings in place. Thanks!
