The plans indicate 1-5/8" minimum distance between the torque tube and the HS rear spar web. Mine is at 1-11/16" and the leading edge of the elevator is rubbing the brackets on the HS that contain the hinge bearings.
Two solutions that I can see:
1. Increase distance from torque tube to HS rear spar by moving rod end bearings in elevators out enough so elevator clears rear spar on HS.
But how much is too much?
2. Flatten the leading edge of the HS more by bending so that it clears the rear spar of the HS.
Any help appreciated, as usual.
