But why this should have changed, or needs adjustment after the initial build setup should be investigated before making any adjustment . - one possibility, is that the flap torgue activation tube behind the seat is a split tube assembly joined by two bolts at 90 degrees if these have come slightly loose then the holes may have become elongated over time - i am thinking this might be the problem as the left flap is the actual one that is directly connected to the lever and the right side via the two bolts. See the picture from the build manual . The important point is the flap angles after they are deployed is the same. so my starting point after making this adjustment is to measure these angle . if they are different then something is wrong with the geometry of the flap attachment points and we can go from there to work out a solution .

Sent by: owner-kis-list-server@matronics.com So it appears that the right flap has some kind of slack issue. In the pick below the right flap is fully retracted but is not flush. The left flap is flush. At the trailing edge it appears to be hanging down about 1/2" - 3/4". Took the pick at the end of day and was too tired to think about measuring.
