Hello,
I'm in the process of fluting the leading edge ribs for the wings, and I'm running into an issue where I can get the rib pretty straight, but once I pick it up from my flat surface, I notice that there is some twist diagonally. It seems to get worse the more I flute the areas closer to the tip of the rib. But then if I un-flute the area, I can sometimes lessen the twist, but then the rib isn't as straight.
Is this acceptable? I can lay the rib on a flat surface, and apply light pressure and it lays flat. If not, what is the best way to get rid of the diagonal warp?
Advice needed,
Ryan
