    Default Fuel valve and bracket

    My FX-3 fuselage has a bracket that is obviously designed to support the top two holes of the fuel valve. After I removed the left middle side panel of my FX-3 I found that the relaxed position of the fuel valve is more than 1/4 inch aft of, and below, the bracket.

    It takes an unreasonable amount of force to align the valve mounting holes with the fuselage bracket. Are EX-3 builders instructed to mount the valve to this fuselage bracket or has the design been changed to support the valve only by the side panel?
