How strong are those wings, held on by only two studs?
Alan

They actually stay on quite well.  However, when attaching the wings, you have
to hold the model steady because with just one wing, it's very unbalanced.  I
wouldn't try to hold the model by one wing, but then again, you wouldn't do
that for most spaceships--too much torque.  I don't know how well the model
would stand on the lower edge of the wings (it's mounted on a short
monorail stand right now)... It'd be really cool if you could attach wings like
that and have them articulated for steering, like a sail on a sailboat...
