Skinning the ailerons and closing the rear of the wing. Discovered a slight warp in the wing tip and had to repair. Tomorrow will try to setup ailerons so hinge pin can be removed if require. Also, I will set the flap servos, seems like other things keep pushing it back.


Skinning the aileron. Trim tab to be added later.

Out of the clamps, but not sanded.

One side complete and on to the next side. This is one sturdy aileron; it should not flex in the wind.

Aileron side of the rear of wing closed up.

View of flap side of the rear of the wing closed up.

The fit for the flap was very close and required minimal sanding for clearance.

Flap rear wing closer view with flap just starting to open. It has been said that take off works much better with 10 degrees of flap. This should be pretty close to the setting.

The fit for the flap is right on.

View of rear wing closure for the flap, showing where I will add some reinforcement to the opening for the push rod to the flap servo.

Saw a slight warp in the wing tip so clamped it down and reset the main spar member with added side reinforcement to correct it.
