 |
|
When I was fitting the doubler around the aileron pushrod hole I found it necessary to remove the external aileron stop (although it wasn't mentioned in the modification instructions.)
I did a search and see that Zenith wants the external stop retained even though we're supposed to add a stop in the fuselage as well.
Did the rest of you just move the stop outboard to clear the doubler or what?

Keeping it in the same place only on top of the doubler. I will check the deflection and correct as necessary at final assembly.

I heard from Caleb on the issue. It is OK to move the stop outboard enough to clear the aileron rod hole doubler. It is also OK to trim back the edge of the upper rear spar angle where it protrudes above the doublers if you are concerned about interference with the aileron piano hinge.

Also, had a nice visit with Roy Garrett in Port Huron, MI, today. He has both wings off his XL and is well along in his mods. You'd never believe Roy was 85 - he is still building and going strong.... an example to the rest of us.

After installing the counterweights, if find that I am 10 mm. from the aileron stop, when the cw. hits the skin. Spoke to Roger and he said that the stop had been "redesigned" a couple of yrs. ago and would send a new stop. I'm drwg. # 6419.

This is from memory, I think the aileron movement is 11.5 degrees up and 11.5 degrees down.

well if there is a new stop designed,
can someone with the latest version of the plans ( 650 I guess) scan in the aileron stop so we all can see how it is done? size wise / thickness?
