I'm having problems installing the flap on the left wing. When I pin the flap to the wing, the upper surface of the flap presses so hard on the trailing edge of the wing skin that it takes a fair amount of effort to move the flap up and down. If I hold the flap in position (without pinning it) so the upper surface merely touches the upper skin, the hinge eyes on the flap stick out below the lower surface of the wing. (hope that makes sense). I noticed that the hinge eyes on the trailing edge of the lower wing, and the trailing edge itself are not dead straight.
The flap was aligned with the aileron when I pin the flap in place, so I'm clueless as to what I did wrong, and I'm at a loss as to how to fix the problem. Anyone run into the same problem, and have any ideas as to what to do?
