Hi all: I've been working on Dwg 33 Electric Flap Installation for some time. Everything is prepared so today I did a complete test installation to check all is ok. Looking good!
I haven't yet attached the drive motor to a 12v source. However, before I connected the actuator it was clear that the weldment requires much more manual effort to move up and down than I would have expected. Obviously there is substantial friction coming from the flap bearing blocks. Is this normal? Maybe I should have buffed the outboard ends and F-680 centre of the weldment?
Any thoughts will be appreciated.
Best wishes
