I have reviewed the threads and cannot find anything regarding my problem. Also I do not live anywhere near another RV to be able to visit and see how things are assembled.
I have trimmed my wing fairings and tried to install the rubber that goes between the fairing and fuselage. While it is posible I need to trim a slight bit more, I am having trouble as the curve of the fairing/rubber, goes around the forward curve of the wing.
For one thing, there is no support in that area for the fairing. When assembling it, as you push down, the fairing wants to go down too far and when I pull it back up the rubber piece that is directly against the fuselage wants to flip down while the aft part of the rubber I have curled up ( which I think is the way to try to get it to go).
Let me go to questions if I can properly describe in word what would be simple in a picture.
1. I have the rubber mounted on the fairing with the stub of the rubber that pushes against the fuselage, on the bottom. I am trying to mount the fairing so the stub will curl up as I push down to install screws into the fairing.
2. Is that the correct way to mount the rubber or should the rubber tip be on the top side of the fairing so it is straight accross (flat) on top?
3. is the rubber part that rubs against the fuselage supposed to curl up or down?
I appreciate your help and a picture would be great.
