s an intricate mechanism, and I take my hat off to Ivan and co for designin

=99m sure he will come to the rescue=0AThanks for replying.=0ARegards=0ATon

ert=0A>=C2-=0A>Gidday,=0A>Well, it seems my Trim Tab Link Rod, TS05 is co
nflicting with my plastic forks of the servo, like many others. I think I h
ave to eat humble pie here. The issue is that the vertical of the two rivet
s that hold the insert AN490 HT8P in position, its head is the culprit. It
looks like to me the easiest fix is to take a little of the fork excess pla
stic away, but there isn=99t much, and any finer adjustment needs to
be made by removing the offending rivet, and repositioning it. Thats my cur
rent plan, and to that end I=99d like to ask what the length of the i
nsert is that is within my T bar tube. I am thinking of removing the offend
ing rivet and repositioning 45 degrees offset. I would like to double the s
pacing that exists between the current rivets, in side elevation, for the p
lacement of the next one, so I have double the metal since I have half the
offset, as the holes from the removed rivet will have created a wall weakne
ss. Still, there shouldn=99t be
a ridiculous amount of load on these, and the second one is probably more
of a secondary means of attachment, aviation double check anyway.=C2-=0A>
=C2-If anyone has not constructed the T bar, can I please ask for the ins
ert length? I will ask Europa if the list is unable to help. Thanks.=0A>Reg
