Conversion to new RV-3 QB wings

Schnebeck

I'm New Here
Has anyone done the conversion to QB wings?

Is drilling out and replacing the center section to accomodate the new

wings a major overall for a new builder?

Hi John,

It's not for the weak of heart, and I wouldn't recommend it for someone who hasn't built an RV previously. I'm not saying it would be impossible, but it will be even more of a challenge.

Here are some pictures I took of the retrofit I did. This fuselage wasn't quite complete when I did it, so it was easier than it would be on a complete, and flying plane.
