How far do you reassess the hinge pin (or elbow) after the hole is drilled. Does anyone have a recommendation for this method. Also I see the manual says you only need 2 ribs on the hinge for contact (you can cut the rest), Is this recommended. Thanks
You recess the pin so that the pin pivots at the rear of the trailing edge so that it leaves no gap between the trailing edge and the control surface. This means you also recess into the control surface.
They say you
CAN reduce the length,
NOT that you
SHOULD. This allows you to install in places where full length pins may protrude through the surface of the control or be visible due to transparent covering. Always use as many barbs as you can for the best grip.
