REFLECTOR: elevator

[Ron N Velocity XLFG]

Are you seeing this in relation to your  wing tips?
If so  mine are off a bit  Sorry do not have a number for you  but then I checked mine with the incidence gauge  and a straight edge 
and found them to be  spot on  . So you might check it that way  I would think this would be much more important  than the  wing tip 
matching up  with the elevator  which is more cosmetic.

  Forgive me. As I said I am a carpenter. The measurement is 7/64”. is that a problem?

  Did you mean to write 11 thousandeths of an inch?  If so, are you trying to make us feel bad about our craftmanship?

    Well things finally warmed up enough in the North country to do some work on my canard. I removed it at the beginning of winter to do the conversion from non-concentric to concentric torque tubes. I reinstalled it on the aircraft today and hooked up the linkage to the control stick. When everything was tight, I noticed that the trailing edge of my left elevator was off .011” with my right elevator. I know this is a very small difference but I just wondered, before I test fly it, if this will be  a major problem. If so, any advice how to correct it?
