Rear Wing - Correcting Centre Wing Position
After fitting the rear wing I felt that the wing didnt sit in the middle of the 2 supports - seemed a bit to low and not quite square.

Too low IMO

With the wing assembled draw around the profile on each end with a pencil

With the wing removed its obvious that it wasn't lying in the middle of the protuding part. Measure out ans redrill roughly where the wing should sit.

Not the tidiest of jobs but use a drill the size of the bolt to "mill" the existing hole until you can get the wing to sit in the middle both horizontally and vertically.

Once you have found the correct location I use a tiny bit of fibreglass resin to glue a washer in place and then bolted it up.

Position of how the wing sits is now much improved
