Need to envision all of the ways that the wing may break/fail during its lifecycle:

• Spar bending fracture from excessive bending moment (would probably occur at or near root)
• Spar shear failure from excessive shear forces near root (very very low chance of this)
• Torsional failure due to flutter/wing twisting moment (loss of lift, rear spar breaks, ribs break, monokote skin tears)
• Fairings + boom placement impart excessive vibrational/twisting loads onto wing, leading to flutter and torsion failure
• Excessive impact & vibrational forces from landing cause spar to either deform, snap, or detach from center wing box
• Wing joining mechanism fails → wings fall off 😟 (bolts fail in shear, spar joiners not strong enough and deform)
  • Lots of bending, shear, tension/compression forces at root and in center wing box, so this is a big concern
  • Could also be that the center wing box does not adequately distribute wing loads onto fuselage, leading to failure within the fuselage
• Hinge line failures: monokote hinge tears → control surfaces detach or monokote hinge deforms → control surface deflect improperly
• Servo failure (can’t turn or slow down); can happen from the servo itself failing or from the control horns and push rods failing
• We crash 🙀 (wing-strike during takeoff/landing is the most feasible occurrence → balsa components snap; if we crash-crash, then we’re cooked: spars and center wing box fail)
• Not enough ribs/stringers/sheeting to tension monokote: either the monokote sags then tears or balsa components snap
