Stage 40 gives us the main spar (they call it the wing support) and frame.

The spar is fitted in place with 3 screws.  However, check that it's straight before fitting it.  Mine was a little banana shaped and needed tweaking to get it straight.  Easy to do by hand and eye.

It fits in place here, and make sure it's fully seated before putting any screws in.

And the wing tip.

Put the frame in place and check that the cables are all running in the channel down the centre and aren't trapped.  Then fix it with 6 screws.

Here are a couple of close-ups showing how the cables should be routed.

That completes stage 40.
