Hi Listers,

The plans call for the F659 rod to be 3 1/2" long. With this length, my handle will not go in the top notch of the F658A flap anchor.  Has it been everyones experience the 659 rod needs to be shorter?
Thanks
Tim

If things are aligned properly, one particular length should work in each of your flap notches. What the right length is, well, that depends on all of the other pieces in the flap assembly.

It has been a long time since I built the flap control handle and assorted parts, but I remember having to remake the flap anchor (that's the curved piece with the notches in it, right?) because it didn't make an even-radius arc segment around the pivot point for the flap handle. That caused binding problems in the slot in the handle, and probably meant that one flap notch worked well, and another didn't.
