Airlerons

Post by mbetti » Sat Feb 18, 2012 10:13 am

I need a little more advice on the ailerons. I messed up one of the counter weights, (don't ask), and lost somewhere between 5 and 10 percent of its weight. I installed it and then went to the other weight and cut the same amount off of it to at least match. Now I am being haunted by my concious as to replacing both of them. Do you think this is critical?
Thanks,

you're being pretty generous IMHO. You have a few :) wing builds in
experience. First time builder 2 to 3 hundred Hr. for wings. After that
it gets
quicker.
