I was installing the flaps tonight on my QB 7a wings when I made my first big mistake ? I installed the piano hinge for the flaps in between the skin and the flap bracket. No problem ? I drilled out the rivets and reinstalled it in its proper place on the outside of the bracket. Only problem was that in drilling and tapping out the rivets I inadvertently caused the piano hinge ?loops? on the wing side to get out of alignment with the matching ?loops? on the piano hinge on the flap. Net result is that the pin would not go through. Any suggestions on how to realign a piano hinge?
Also ? I see that this pin extends through a hole that needs to be drilled in the aileron bracket. How do you secure the pin so it won?t move and interfere with the aileron?
Thanks double!
