RH aileron dead straight...
Guys, this post started a few weeks ago with me having a slight twist in my LH aileron. Here is an update: I finished the RH aileron yesterday. I measured the skin before I started, and found the leading edge NOT square to the 'ends'. I have pics of this, and 2 different squares showing the skin out of square by about .060". MY aileron skins were also NOT prepunched like the manual says they are. There IS ACTUALLY a top and bottom! There is about a 16th" difference between the top and bottom dimensions.
Anyway, on this aileron, I squared the spar to the trailing edge, instead of the leading edge. This left a bit of excess material forward of the spar, but I still had the correct dimensions per the drawing. I built this aileron EXACTLY like the left one, on the SAME table. Guess what? Perfectly flat. No twist. Undoubtedly, I paid more attention to twist on this one, as I was expecting it, but I DO think the left hand aileron skin might have been twisted as well. At the end of the day, when I fit the ailerons onto the wings, and install the tips, I will see how it looks. If things don't line up, I'll build a new left one. Also, anyone out there building a -4, but haven't yet started ailerons? Look close at the skin, if they aren't punched, remember... there IS A top and bottom.
Happy building,
Gregg
