Just a heads up if you are a first time builder like me, make sure that the mount holes line up on the F-1252 Flaperon stops with the seat ribs. The holes will only line up with the proper side facing out to be countersunk. :(
 
Good tip Harold. I found this to be true for the whole kit, if the parts don't cleco togeather something is wrong.

21-05 nutplates

Hal,
Also on page 21-05 note that the nutplates for the flap handle in fig 3 & 4 are K1000-3 and NOT K1000-8. When you are working these parts and installing all those K1000-8s it is real easy to not notice and install the wrong ones. At least a couple of builders, me included, made this mistake.

Jeez, I don't know how I could have run into that trap but I did. Now I have to figure out how to fix this ...
 
Hairball, Mac has a link to his blog in his signature which details the mistake and actions taken to correct the problem. Scroll to section 21.
