Flap Position Sensor, Roll Bar install ( 5 hrs )
Bolted on Flap Actuator per Sect 34-04 Steps 3 & 4, and 34-05 Steps 1 & 2. Safety wired jam nut on rod end. Completed optional Flap Position Sensor install (Sect 54-04 Steps 6-9). Works great - used R/C Field Kit 12v starter battery to operate through range of travel. Riveted on Roll Bar Ass'ly per Sect 37-06 Steps 1-9, including Doublers and Bronze Bushing for Canopy retention pin. Added 27" square tubing temporary legs to LH and RH Wing Spars. This positions Fuse lower so easier to work on Canopy and Rear Window during Finish Kit (actual landing gear legs would be too tall, and project out considerably). Bolted in using same bolts, washers & nuts originally holding plywood spacers in Spar from QB shipment. Added "fender washers" to fill width perfectly between front to rear Spar. Those bolts are sheathed in plastic too, protecting holes in Spar.

Note: bottom hole is outward slightly from top hole, probably setting up couple degrees dihedral when Wing is installed. Thus "leg" is not perfectly vertical, but it'll do....
