Benny,


If you never fold the wings, maybe you should just tighten up all the bolts so that there is no play at all. On my FireStar I removed the big castle nut & cotter, then installed a self locking (fiber/plastic) nut. Checked it on pre-flight for a long time. It never loosened and I did fold the wings after every flight.

Yeah I think that mostly answers my questions. I don't really feel the play in the air, but anything that moves will wear or wear faster so I'd prefer it be right/tight. My wires are fairly tight and bolted as I never really fold it.
