[rebel-builders] #5 Hinge Rear spar for wing Super Rebel/Moose Upgrade
Posted: Sun Feb 19, 2012 11:34 pm
I've found the best alignment string to be dental floss.
Inexpensive and you can pull it really tight.
And floss too.

Paul, Do what you must do to have all hinge points aligned, the less
friction or bending the better.
I used a laser pointer up against the inboard end to test that, A piece of
string stretched out tightly would also work.
Doing the math is a good starting point, but the actual alignment is the
proof!

I am beginning to pre-build the rear spar in my head. Does the #5 hinge
(wing tip hinge) need to be shimmed to be in the correct position to
minimize/prevent binding. It seem that the hinge will be pulled forward to
the
main spar extentions, based on adding up the part thicknesses. Or am I over
analyzing?
I appreciated the discussion regarding the electrical conduit last time I
posted a question.
Thanks,
