Default RE: Need help with a warped / bent aileron.

Couple things you can do. You can heat the side on the back side of the bow, while bending it that way. Tightening the covering on that side will often fix the problem. I bought a mini Yak that had a warped wing that needed this treatment. I used a heat gun on that because it was a larger area, and I could hold it between my legs while I twisted it. Smaller parts are a little harder to do with only two hands, I assume like most people, you only have two. Cheers. You can doooo it.
