I have allways made the ribs & glued them in place oversized, just adjusted the lenght correct.
Then sanded them true with a long, straight sanding block and plywood templates in both ends of wing panel. I like it because it gives a perfect contact between the ribs and sheeting.
But I have not used diagonal ribs, maybe it will be more difficult. Even with normal ribs you must be very carefull.
