Default Vent Holes

Hi Volture,
I do have the vent holes in the ribs. The wing is foam rib built-up, and before I covered it I took a rod and heated it and ran it through each rib. This plane only does it on the right wing, and just started doing it. I flew it all last season and it didn't do it. It's done it the last 3 times out. I've recovered it twice now. This is definately gonna be something weird. I hope I get to the bottom of it, because I've talked to 3 other people who have had the same thing happen and have sworn up and down there were no edges up and when I told them all the normal things they told me "already done". I think one of the guys ended upo seeling the plane he got so fed up with it. I definately can't afford to that right now. I just got this plane flying right. It takes forever to set one of these birds up and get them all dialed in.
