Yeah, the sheet was cupped. When I glued the overlays on I pressed it under some heavy weight to dry. The warpage cancelled each other out. For the fuselage boom I clamped it to an angle tool then glued it to the body. Filleted and let it dry before unclamping. Everything looks straight now. Hopefully with the elevators at full up and glider properly trimmed I'll get a decent glide from it. We shall see. Thanks for the input.
