Hi,
I would measure out at the end of the wings as well. If one side is off, I would check the two spar bolts that hold the wing in place. There is a sleeve for both bolts and if the bolts are over tightened they can go into the composite and cause a wing to droop.
To our success, Stephen McIntosh

Subject: Can you identify this TR-1 nose gear?
From: "jeffbudner" <jeffbudner(at)gmail.com>
Hi all, I'm in the midst of a pre-buy inspection for a TR-1, and have a couple
of questions, that hopefully you can help me answer:
1. Posted below are pics of the nose gear assembly, from these pics can you determine
if this is an original model nose gear or a more hardened version?
2. Regarding the flaps, the left flap extends down 1.5" lower than the right. Is
this an adjustment issue or could there be some intentional purpose to it?
My apology is I've posted too many pics, I wasn't sure which pics are relevant
to question 1 above.
Thanks,
Jeff

I dont have an answer for you about the TR-1 but your photos look like the gear
on the TR-4. The original gear for the TR-4 was linked to rudder pedals and provided
nose wheel steering. Those were replaced early on with free castering
version.

Hi Jeff,
I fly a TR1 .. Your Nose Gear Leg appears to the Good ... and
appears to be the most recent Hendricks version . I know of 4 versions .
First version was round ( approx 1 inch Dia) formed/shaped .. not strong ...
next 2 versions were 'Airfoil Tube' construction .. and lastly the strongest
Round larger Diameter unit u photo'd .
Regarding Flap extension being 1 and a Half inch different ... that would
alarm me ... a suggest investigate why this is so . !!?? ( they should be
rigged to deploy uniformly together ... and so fly straight and true and
controllable ... departure from 'in unison' Flap Deployment ... introduces
controllability issues/concerns )
Luv my TR1 .. good luck,
Graham
