May 04, 2020 Elevator Attachment Category: Empennage
Worked on attaching the elevators. Filed down a bushing in the drill press, to be used as a drill guide. I used an Allen Wrench to help align the rod end bearings during installation. Lot's of on and off to adjust the elevators to the correct gap on the edge. I finally found Temporary Assembly Pins at Aircraft Spruce. The pins are threaded so the pin holder can be removed — this is necessary to prevent damage to the skin when you move the control surface too far during fitting.
