I've had a tough time getting my right flap and aileron rigged correctly. The ailerons are centered using the aileron rigging tool. But I can't get the right flap up high enough to align with the inside edge of the right aileron. It is about 1/4 inch low. I believe it is because the aileron trailing edge is not perfectly straight. I can see that it has a slight curve in it. My belief is that the aileron trailing curves up on the inside edge about 1/4 inch.
It is difficult to be certain. I suppose the flap could be twisted. The reason I suspect the aileron is because I can see it on the trailing edge.
The question is what should I do? Would it be wrong to fly it as is to see if I have a heavy wing? I could buy a quick build aileron to see if that is actually the problem.
Thanks Mike
