 |
|
I am currently assembling the Left and Right wing. I have made the template for positioning the 7V6-2SP that I have bent up. I built the Template as per the drawings but when I set the 7V6-2SP in position it does not sit flush with the top of the rear rib. In order for 7V62SP to sit flush top and bottom on the rib it must move toward the wing spar about a 6mm. I have double checked all measurements as well as physically measuring it of the spar. It is bang on.
Is it possible to move 7V6-2SP closer to the wing spar?

mcolbeck,
I'm a fairly novice builder so take this advice for what it's worth. You may want to check if your top and lower skins 7V7-2 and 7V7-3 are predrilled for the rear channel. Some kits are and some are not, depending on how long ago they've been purchased. If they are predrilled, check if moving the rear channels 6mm forward would still give you an adequate hole position.
Also, you may want to verify you could still rivet the lower trailing edges 7V7-4 and 7V7-5 to the rear channel if it's pushed 6mm forward (reference lower right diagram on 7V7). If you can still attach these skin pieces, I believe it's okay to move the rear channel forward to the desired location.
One word of caution: I would make sure the distance between 7V3-1SP and 7V7-1 (spar root fitting to heavy rear channel at root) is as accurate as possible. If it's more than 3mm off, you may encounter problems when you jig the fuselage and cabin frame.
Good Luck,
Dan
