Hi everyone,
Yesterday I put the wings on the fuselage for the first time. After checking a tenth of time, I drilled the rear spar to set the incidence angle. Everything went good (zero sweep, squaring within a 1/32" 0.0 degree checked with numeric level and laser). Today I put the ailerons to set the neutral position and the flaps. I ground the fuselage side skin to let the pushrod go freely through the fuselage and seat floor. But here is my problem :
The flaps don't kiss the fuselage at the wing root. I checked the flap and aileron twist, it doesn't exist. I checked the wind incidence, it is good. The ailerons neutral position is ok.
On the photo below you will see the problem.
Am I missing something or is that normal?
thanks a lot
