Help requested - wing hinge washers
I'm about to do the final riveting for the flaps and ailerons and have bolted them onto one wing. However, the KAI is very unclear regarding which washers go where for the hinges.

Re: Panel CAD
I have a copy of the TSI blank .dxf file from Sling, but I still can’t attach files to posts here. If anyone can tell me how to do that I’ll share it, otherwise ask them directly. I’m using Xpanel software to play with basic designs to see what might fit / work, there is a Sling template in the pack...

Re: Elevator gusset misalignment
Finally received a replacement gusset which fits perfectly! Took way too long to get it considering it’s a local product but at least the problem is resolved. Was indeed the wrong part in the right packaging sent initially

Re: Fuel Sender Options
Thanks this is a good option. Sling built my tanks and I supplied these senders based on your video, they did a good job installing them and working directly with CiES.
