Worked on Ailerons

My Dynon autopilot roll servo showed up today.  I’m not going to install it just yet because I’m waiting on an order from B&C for some d-sub 9 connectors so I can fabricate a connector for this at the servo.

I countersunk the galvanized pipe used as the aileron counterweight.

To form the dimples in the skin, I mounted the 1/8″ male die on a special bucking bar I bought.  Using the galvanized pipe as the female die, I hammered this into the holes in the skin.

…resulting in dimples in the leading edge for the CS4-4 blind rivets.
