Okay, after 6 flights (with no buddy box) I crashed my Avistar. (caught a downdraft while on final approach, flipped the right wing down HARD!) Fuselage was totaled but the tail feathers were undamaged, along with the major mechanical parts (engine, servos, Rx). I have a new fuse comming and I was ambitious enough to repair the wings myself (replaced 6 inches of leading edge from main joint out on left wing). My problem is this...
When putting the pieces back together on the most damaged wing after repair, I used thin CA to reattach the Aileron, but before I was able to totally seat the hinges, the glue dried! Now I have a gap of about 1/8th of an inch between the trailing edge of the wing and leading edge of the aileron. Will this be a major thing? I mean will the wing not work now?
If it's not a major thing that's great, but if it is, how do I fix it? I have used 30 min epoxy to re-attach the torque arm to the inboard area of the aileron and I don't want to have to break this piece if I don't have to. Is there some sort of glue dissolver I can use for both the CA and epoxy so I can try again?
And BTW, my new buddy box is on order so now I can have my Instructor close aboard should the need arise!
Any and all suggestions are welcome!
