After spending some time this weekend with a long time builder in another state I was able to take away some gems of wisdom. Putting it into practice is another story.
Tonight I was able to complete the left flap. I used his recomendation on a perfectly straight table with no warp, humps, or dips in it. I drilled and clecoed straight into the table when able and followed the build sequence as Vans recomends in the const. manual. Im pretty happy with the results, however when laid on a flat surface the inboard trailing edge was up about 1/8th of an inch. So what is acceptable twist when building the wing control surfaces. I know that you can "squeeze" the ailerons to correct for minor twist.
