I got both wings at the same time and Phil's (XP-4 wing) is just fine.
The 4.5 panel is 29 11/16" long
It would take a lot of dihedral to get it to work. I did not think to check
it, since I didn't expect it to be that much difference in length.

Grab your razor saw (they do have a WS gauge at the Nats IIRC) - send
nasty
msg to Phil & Denny!
The only contests that I know of that measure wings that closely are the
NATS and Poway (IHLGF).
Also: I DO NOT make XP4.5 wings. The jig that I use to cut XP4 wings is
calibrated nicely, Thank you.
