Good day all,
Seems that I am having more questions the further I go from this point. I
just finished installing the cockpit module and the rear bulkhead aft of the
tailplanes. I went to make up the Pitch Push Rod and found a problem. The manual
says to cut a EUR002 Set Screw to 1 1/2", then fully screw it into the CS17A
End Cap with some Threadlocker and a locking nut on the other side. But the
EUR002's that were supplied are only threaded halfway down the shaft. Am I
missing
something? And they are not easy to replace because they are not standard
bolts found at your local Ace Hardware store or Home Depot.
Then, when building the Trim Damper and Bellcrank Assy the manual says to cut
the TS04A Shaft to 28mm. It's already that length! But the M5 X 60 bolt that
goes thru the center is too long, it hits the TS02 support on the other side.
Does this get trimmed to fit? Then there is no mention of how tight the M10
Nylock is to be. With it "just on", the spring load is very tight. Is the trim
drive servo that strong?
I know this is homebuilt, but these type things could nag me later. Thanks in
advance for any insight from those that have gone before.
