Hello

  

 I have just begun to build an RV8,  and I am experiencing my first problem.

 So that's a beginner question:

 I have tried several times to set one of the rivet  assembling HS-702 with HS-404 and HS-405.

 Now the hole is too big and I can not set the  rivet.

 Is there any solution? (the rivet is an AN-470  AD-4)

  

 Thank you very much for your answers.

  

 Emmanuel.

First, get a rivet squeezer to use instead of the rivet gun. Select an over length rivet, and gently “pre-squeeze” it to make it swell slightly in diameter until you achieve a decent fit in the hole. Trim to length as required, then squeeze. Use the squeezer everywhere you can.
