I am not sure if you checked, but my flaps were way off from the
factory. Kit #286. Check to make sure both the inboard and out board
edges line up the same and the leading edge doesn't hang down from the
trailing edge/cove of the wing. I need to change the symmetry to get
it all to work. This maybe why one flap is going farther than the
other. I do thin 1-2 degrees will make some difference in flight
characteristics, stall to one side sl more drag on the down side. I
have no data to support this though.
