Thanks! I think in reality the fillet is probably the easiest method. There are probably 4 more ways this could be done but not really worth going that crazy with it :)
Great video. If we wanted to cut the wing at the aileron part so that it has the same semi-circular shape only concave and the alieron convex shape fits in is that possible? It is a good way to streamline the airflow over the control surface.🤔
Im not sure I would say Streamline, but it can be done. What I would probably do is make a body that has the leading edge you want for the aileron then use combine or boundary fill with the intersect option to create a new aileron body with that rounded leading edge but "keep tools" so the wing stays. Then using surface tools I would offset the outside of that whatever gap you want around it at the wing, then use that surface to cut away from the wing. That is probably the easiest way i can think the preserve the wing shape and make the aileron.
Excellent Matt.

These are such excellent videos! Well done!
Glad you like them!
Nice work. I'll def be using this!
