Hi Wade,



 I made the skin hole bigger.  I don't thing this will be a problem since the wing root covers this area in flight.



 I had a horrible time getting the linkage to work for the same torque tube.  If you have problems with the tube from the motor hitting the large channel then let me know.  I finally figured out how to fix this problem.  (It resulted in egg shaped holes in the skin for the torque tube, but I still don't think this is a problem.)

Wade,



Obviously you can't put a 1 1/8" thing thru a 1" hole.  The hole in the side skin must be at least 1 1/8", but it is OK if it is slightly larger.  What is critical is the 1" hole in the flap control rod bearings.  These are installed from the inside ends of both control tubes and determine the location, side to side, and up and down, of the control tube assembly.



This whole flap actuator system was so confusing to me that I actually made myself a step by step sequence of things to do, start to finish.



I have attached a pdf of that list, if you are interested.
