Flaperon Interference..

Installed wings today and have a very slight rubbing of the lower surface of the flaperon on a rivit on the fuse. I'm wondering if I should make clearance by removing about 1/8 in of the lower flaperon....
 
Hey Sam

Mark the spot, then remove a little off the flap. Make a very gradual arc, and you won't be able to see it later. 1/16" is enough. Make a 2" slight arc, and should be good. Many have had that happen.
