I started assembling one of my flaps. I can only do the right side flap because I am waiting on some mounts that need to be riveted to the right flap. The one I received with the kit did not rotate freely so I requested new one. I also cant build the ailerons because there are some control linkages that the instruction manual says must be installed before the aileron is built but that the pieces come in the finishing kit and not the wing kit, seems a little wrong to me but ill just have to wait. Lastly I cant rivet the leading edge of the flaps or ailerons just yet as the instructions say to wait so that you can adjust the twist in the flaps and ailerons to exactly match the wings.
