I have aligned the elevators, See here, done the thing with the metal block with a perpendicular hole through, and drilled to #40 through both horns.
I remain concerned however, that when I drill out to 3/16th, and put the bolt, washers and bearings between them, the alignement will shift.
(I guess my concern is that with the flange bends in the horns the surfaces are not perfectly flat. I have fitted the block as best I know how, but a minute surface error here would surely translate to a significant error at the trailing edge?)
Any tips as to how to be ABSOLUTELY sure this does not happen? Am I worrying unecessarily?
