I am riveting the trailing edge of the flaperons on my model 4. The manual said to use 3/16 X 1/8 pop rivets. What rivets are most builders using, pop or solid rivets for better looks.

We used solid "flush" rivets and put them in every 4"
Solid and flush for me

I used pop rivits originally. Did not like the looks so I drilled them out and used solid rivits. I guess its just personal preferences.
