Application scenario
VTOL boom clamps and wing-root quick release:Application scenario

Front and rear boom clamps grip the carbon boom in 7075 aluminum, under a streamlined fairing.

Wing-root quick release: a spring latch catches automatically as the wing slides in, and a pull lever releases the wing quickly. A carbon spar tube and locating pins handle alignment and load, and the electrical connector mates at the same time.
