Brief Description: Flap dirve & aileron support frame
I made the other root flap arm. I remembered to use the radius side this time!
I started the aileron support frame by making the arm for the aileron bell crank first out of 3/4" tube and 7/16" tube. I had to do a double take because in Eric's manual it says that the tube for the bell crank is 3/8" but the plans show 7/16". I went with what the plans show which make sense because you drill this part out to a 1/4" hole.
Then I welded the end on the support frame. Next I welded the arm onto the support frame by first tack welding then final welding. After I welded it on I notice that the support frame tube had a pretty good bend from the heat of welding the arm on. I put it in a vice and heated it back up and straightened it out.
I've got one arm on (minus the angle piece and the other arm tack welded to the other support frame.
