 |
|
Yet to get my Esqual on Lighting legs moving yet but I do need to set
the Toe. I've left it to drill the final bolt hole until I have the
plane loaded with wings and fuel and people.
So my question is, what is the recommended Toe?
I put the Esqual gear straight, not in or out, parallel and it didn't
shimmy.
I tried a degree toe in but after I had drilled it and messed about with
the plane it checked out straight.
I was minded to do the same again.
What say Ye Lightning gear users?
Regards, Clive (Wings on Thursday I hope)
Esqual in the UK

have someone video the shimmy, you might find it not to be in the nose
wheel, maybe it is some where else, like in the mains. My shimmy is now
gone, you have my specs as to what I did and it worked, the nose wheel needs
to be "tight", but I have not adjusted mine in 4 years. Remember -I made
the nose wheel suspension that did not help, you need video to watch the
mains.
