QB Wing Question
I have received my QB wings, what a great decision.
Should I remove the fuel tanks to finish the wings? |
Hi Kevin,
how long did it take from order to delivery? Malte |

Here is a timeline of the quickbuild order-delivery time frame for the U.S. Ordered QB Fuse & Wings 12-18-2017 Van's Rec'd kits 06-25-2018 Paid final to Van's 06-27-2018 Delivered 09-02-2018 PM me about the delay in delivery. I used a preferred vendor that does not crate the kits and this created a substantial delay. I know this does not affect you in your location. |
Tanks
I opted for the ER tanks. As such, I ended up removing mine from the QB wings. It wasn?t required but it made things easier. Especially leak checking the tanks. I found the B nuts on my vent lines were NOT tight. I made a stubby wrench to fish in through the fuel level sender hole to tighten them. It wasn?t difficult to remove the tanks...

Thanks for the timeline!
I think even six months from ordering until the kit is at van's is quite a lot. Probably I'll go with slow build wings and a qb fuselage. Malte |
I found it easier to install the fittings and the fuel sender as well as testing the tank with them off the wing (built a cradle to hold them on bench). I replaced all the bolts with new and torqued them myself - some of the ones I removed were over-torqued.
