So sorry you have to tear apart your wings to remove LCP's. I was lucky in that I hadn't started on my -14A build when I learned about laser cut parts. Thanks for sharing your build with us.
Hopefully everyone doing this has the rivet heads on the flap bracket facing inboard, otherwise drilling them out from the tail side would be much harder
If you look closely at how you plan to re-set rivets while inside the wing, you may decide (like I just did tonight) that it'll be easier to upsize to all cherrymax 5's and re-drill everything #20

Ouch. Nice job. It looks frightening. You did great! 🎉
Thank you for sharing this. I would rather have to build two new fuel tanks from scratch than have to do this, but alas, like you, I must.
Same! Brutal
@@ericthomas8147 the work isn't difficult... It's more heart breaking than anything. Hopefully this video helps boost your confidence to get it done.
some days I wonder if Vans wants us to finish our projects.
That was painful. Let me know if you need a beer!
I'm ok, but I do need to get those Cleco's back to you!
@@RyanE67 - no rush at all. They are infrequently used on the 12.

@@bovineone as you see... They can be installed either way, nobody thinks about disassembly during "this is forever" assembly mindset😂
I think I got lucky and all my hinge rivet heads are inboard. It was not planned that way.

4:08 in, what is the circuit board-battery?
@@shannonboehm2979 that's the control board for flyLED nav and strobe lights. Just used a little 3 cell lipo battery to test it.
