Hi David,
Been a few years...
Stainless steal blade joiners are glued into the wing receptacles, and
brass rectangular pockets are secured within the fuselage. Small offset
clips (brass again) set the dihedral, and were secured within and up
against the fuselage wall that held the brass pockets at either end.
I modded the system by elliminating the clips and silver-soldering the
brass pockets together, setting my own dihedral.
After a blade failure on an LS-3 way back when, I removed the entire
system and jigged/drilled the wing roots for brass tubing and used a
nitride hardened rod. It lasted up (and including) it's demise.
I have some of the blade material I picked up in Europe some time ago,
I'll check it's dimensions if you like.

I just purchased this, but the wing joiner system was missing, does
anyone have one they no longer need or a description of it so I may make
my own.
This was a 12 mm floating joiner system.
Thanks,
David
