Default RE: crooked aileron on alpha 40 PLEASE HELP...

You know, it occurs to me that if you don't want to try sealing the gap and want to put on a new aileron, you could just cut that old one loose. Just cut through the wood where the torque rod goes in. Then you could try to get a new aileron from the manufacturer. Of course, make sure they will send you a new one before you destroy the bent one.

Also, don't use 5 minute epoxy. It doesn't give you enough working time. Use 30 minute instead.[8D]
