Rib Cross Bracing Tape

[Kamcoman77]

Anybody use Inner Rib Cross-Bracing Tape to prevent the middle of their wing ribs from twisting? I've not seen any in build photos or videos.

No reason to use on the Legal Eagle UL or XL. Just adds weight

Thank you. I kinda thought that because of the low airspeed.

your gussets in the rib building process also help prevent any rib twisting events.

Thanks. I didn't think about the gussets, but they do add a lot of torsional rigidity.
