Heat, moisture, all that has nothing to do with it. The wing structure is flexing way more than intended. I'll bet that if you can get the weight off the wing by supporting the fuselauge, you'd be able to either twist the wing tip, or move it fore and aft enough to soil your pants. Not flying it is the smartest thing you can do. Think about it: If it were a metal wing and it had ripples in the skin, what would you do? The fabric is dimensionally stable, so the only explanation is that the structure has changed. It's yawing because the wing is no longer rigged right. If I were you I'd open them both up. It's your butt in the sling...
