I've searched prior posts but can't find what I'm looking for.
True confession: I didn't build my RV-12.
I'm preparing to remove the wings, and cannot find any instructions. There is a nice YouTube showing a couple of gents doing so...looks really easy. But as there is no accompanying audio, I don't want to assume too much.
It appears that all one does is release the 2 safety pins in the cabin, then pull and repeatedly turn until the insertion pins clear the spars. Next, with the help of an assistant, pull the wings away from the plane until cleared of the fuselage.
What concerns me: what about electrical connections and flaperon connections?
Perhaps the builder didn't give me a manual that explains this process. In looking through the building plans, maintenance manual, and operators manual, I thought I'd find some procedural explanation, but cannot find what I'm looking for.
Any guidance for this information would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance. Jim
