Craig,
I noticed tonight that my email from my shop to you has not posted yet.
It may have gone to your personal address. I have attached some further
clarification on rigging and trimming in that post.
I personally use clay to determine my Tufnol Euro 8 pad thickness. To
do this simply put a thin layer of clay on your fuselage Quick
Disconnects. Lightly oil the wing bell crank to keep the clay from
sticking after disassembly. Simply rig the aircraft and then move the
aileron a 1/4 inch or so then disassembly.
Use an inexpensive caliper or machinist rule with a slide to determine
the thickness of spacer you require. You don't want to have the QDs
hard pressed against one another but just touching. Then just install
your Euro 8 to the thickness measured off the clay. A caliper when
opened has a small metal depth gauge which makes it easy to measure your
thickness, a machinist rule works well also. I carry varying
thicknesses of phenolic in my shop as one size does not fit all
situations.
Regards,
Bud Yerly

I have been putting off bonding the tufnol eur08 onto the bell cranks
cs15,
mainly because I
Have to take the plane outside to rig the wings, I was just wondering
if
there are any traps
I should be aware of, aside from gluing the whole thing together and
not
being about to get
The wings back off.
Regards
Craig
