This is what the final result will look like:

## Wings
TODO: I haven't really gotten there yet.
Connecting the wings has two problems:
First, you need the wing to be stable against rotation around the spar.
Already, the notch the C1 has stops the wing from rotating up, but it does not stop it from rotating down (since you're meant to glue it in place).
Second, you obviously need the wing to be stable against left/right motion, or it will slide off the spar.
To solve these problems, I designed a simple connector with two halves, one of which goes onto the fuselage and one onto the wing:

The connector has two components, one is a cylindrical channel for a carbon tube (which is glued to one of the pieces, as in the photo) that stops the wing from rotating around the spar, and the other is a channel for an o-ring, which keeps the two halves from moving left to right.
To install, place the connector over the underside of the wing and mark the outline, then cut the foam and glue the connector in.
Do the same with the other side, into the fuselage, as shown:
(TODO: Photo to be posted later)
To mount the wings, just insert the spar into the fuselage, insert the wings (making sure both tubes go into their respective holes), and place the o-ring into both halves of the connector.
That gives you a secure and quick assembly.
