Hey guys, section 39-8 talks about inserting a bushing in the control stick base before bolting it to the WD-1010 control arm. I can't find any info about this bushing, whether I made it or it came in the kit etc. Can anyone shed light on what I'm to do here?
Thx, Rick

I just replaced mine. I was sick of the play and machined a Delrin bushing. No play and smoother feel. The bushing ID was too small for my OD using the brass bushing supplied in the kit.

Interested in selling a couple of those. I have some play in mine, not a lot, but enough that I don’t like it. I tried a couple of things to tighten it up….but have not been totally successful. I am also interested in your gopro mount once you produce them. I made one myself…..but it is nowhere near as cool as yours. J

Hey Rene',
I am reluctant to sell the bushings for the controls. Not only am I afraid to sell them but they are all different lengths and different IDs'. I noticed my weldment is not perfectly round from Vans. They weld this unit and warp it in the process so the hole is not consistant. The only way they get a bushing in there is to make it way undersize. They would do better if they welded it and then drilled/reamed the hole afterward. That's what we did. I took out the weldment and redrilled the hole barely oversize then made the custom plastic bushing to fit in the new hole. A lot of work for it but worth it.
I'll put you on the list for the GoPro mount and let you know when they come available.
Thanks Rene, Let me know if I can help otherwise.

Hmmm, It appears I never got those bushings in the kit or used them somewhere else. I could make bushings out of brass
I have a piece of Delrin here I could use too. Sean, do you think the delrin is tough enough? (I guess obviously you do)
Looking at the piece of Delrin I have, it sure appears tough/strong enough. Thx for the good idea.

For what it’s worth, recommend just getting the part from Van’s.
One of the pure RV characteristics is the silky, no play controls. Ream out the bell crank assembly per the plans, then trim the brass bushing slightly longer than the bell crank tube. This ensures the bushing is fully captured by the through bolt such that the bell crank rotates on the bushing, not the through bolt. Add a film of grease on the bushing during assembly and you have years of worry free operation.
