Searched the forums but couldn't find anyone who had made the same mistake. I attached my wing tips without aligning them with the ailerons. The port tip is 3/8th" low but the starboard one is 9/16th" low. I have used piano hinges to join them to the wings and they look good, however, there is a serious alignment issue. I've read the tips have to be in trail with the flaps and aileron for stability. I saw a couple of posts where the tips have been cut across the trailing edge and up the sides and re-glassed. Is this a possibility?
