suggestions to resolve limited flap travel
went through the same issue a few weeks ago; here are my suggestions:
1. confirm your tool is installed in wing alignment holes, and does not flex. my first tool moved a bit, so it was difficult to repeat accurate measurements. after building a new, rigid tool, my measurements were more accurate, and more consistent.
2. use alignment tool -w930, as I recall- in each wing simultaneously. in switching the tool from one wing to the other, I "lost" the neutral position slightly, and had differences in left and right travel. I used the original tool as a template to make a second. Using two at the same time reduced more inconsistency.
3. confirm flap pushrod at the rear of the wing does not rub against the exit. I found both of mine rubbed, limiting some travel, so I judiciously filed away offending material.
4. as suggested above, confirm no binding of flap pushrod or bearing against fuselage.
5. I quit at 34 degrees elevation; this is not an aerobatic airplane, and I want to fly!
