| Subject: | fuselage rolling rack |
I have finally got my RV10 project off the rack and onto it=99s
gear and no longer need the rack. It is a welded steel rack that has
worked great and I am offering it to anyone who is close enough to Las
Vegas to come and get it, for free.

Yeah, not so sure about following the plans on the wingtip alignment. When you
get to the wingtip section, hang the flap and aileron on that wing, align them,
then fit the wingtip. If you just put the wingtip on and keep it as tight
to the skin flange as you can, YOU MAY BE UNHAPPY with the result. And the TE
of the wingtip can move 11/16"...ask me how I know :(
Luckily, I had only drilled a few holes and I had been reading the forums on this
issue, so I went back and hung the flap and aileron, then aligned them in the
specified position. Turns out that the wingtip was "off" by about 1/2 of a
hole diameter at the LE...yep, 1/16". Sure glad I checked it before drilling
the final hole size...Looks good now, within 3/32" tip/aileron/flap...

I should add that I followed the plans exactly on this first tip and must have
gotten lucky because it matched the flap/aileron when finished...
Did the same on the second tip and, well, that's the post above...

I do remember that it was a two person job to make sure the wingtip was pushed
securely into position and held very firmly in position while the holes were drilled.
IIRC it really needs to be pushed forward with some force to fit the leading
edge properly.

The RV-14 plans have you use a ratchet strap to pull the wing tip down into the
wing at the leading edge. Works well and the wing tips are the same tip supplied
with the RV-10. I had no problem doing this installation by myself with the
straps.

Yeah, pushing the wingtip as tight as possible into the leading edge was what generated
the 11/16" difference at the TE, in my case...
