I did so and oolalaa my port wings flap pin goes into his bearing happily.
Small thing makes rigging fun, fast and easy - now it is for me possible
to do it from the trailer in 5 minutes as advertised.

I have to point also: my bearings are fully pushed into their housings
and they cannot go any deeper (yes - I have hammered them) and
they are still rotating free 360 degrees. But because of Rons thick
magic grease they are unsensitive enough today (for me at least).

Cheers, Raimo
