Then I had the idea of connecting the various aircraft parts with magnets - they are strong, but you can separate them again easily.
The whole structure becomes more flexible because it is not glued together - and that extends the lifespan of the aircraft immensely.
With a small Dremel (multifunction rotary tool) you can drill holes of any size and depth into the material.
Diameter and depth should fit with the used magnet.
For the front part of the aircraft I glued 4 magnet rings R-10-04-05-G
on the tip.
I made four indentations in the body and glued four washers into it.
I used 3 S-08-05-N
on each side to connect the wing parts, because the adhesive force convinced me.
