port aileron balancing: 2017-11-28 Panasonic DMC-FT1
The port aileron hung by the hinge-pins to check its balance after sanding off most of the paint and filler on the undersurface. I've drawn a line on the root to mark as well as I can the centreline between the upper & lower surfaces, which needs to be horizontal for proper balance.
