I have finally managed to complete the instn of the Electric Flaps in my very sloooow RV6 build in remote New Zealand.
My Flap travel measures out at 40 degrees RHS, & 43.5 LHS.
Has anybody else experienced this amount of difference in travel, on ANY RV model?
After exhaustive measurements I suspect that it is due to small geometry differences between the two flaps. Ideally a simple Jig or template should have been required to be used to locate the pushrod attach hole at identical positions, wrt the hinge, on both sides.
I shall ask VANS but I would be very grateful for any feedback from Team RV who have "been there done that".
Thanks in advance.
Graham
