Hi all

I have recently started building the TF Spitfire, the first kit back in the hobby after a long break, and have come across a problem.

I am using Robart point hinges of the 1/8" size and the drill jig for these hinge points. I built the rudder and fin, no probs, drilled the holes for the hinge points using the jig and slapped them together to check the fit.

PROBLEM: the rudder now sits a few mm's to the right of the fin (offset). I can only guess that it was the curvature of the fin and rudder trailing and leading edges respectively that threw the jig out???? I did the stab and elevators the same way and perfect.

QUESTION: Will this be a major issue and if so, what would be the best way to go about fixing it?

I hope that all you building pro's can point me in the right direction. The rest of the build (wings, etc) is going swimmingly. I actually surprise myself at how well it's going.

I will try and post a pic if it helps to indicate the issue.

Thanks in advance

Luis
