<\/a>The distance between the attach brackets for the trim bellcrank must be measured carefully to ensure parallelism for the faces, properly aligning the pivot bolt with the trim motor.\u00a0 Here an analog caliper is used to check the distance from the front edge to the back edge.\u00a0 After a number of adjustments, I was able to get the faces within .005″ of parallel.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Fabrication of elevator trim components and push rods was the order for this week. The trim motor housing was completed to the point of final riveting.\u00a0 At this point the alodine\/prime sequence will be used to treat the parts before assembly. The distance between the attach brackets for the trim bellcrank must be measured carefully …<\/span> Continue Reading →<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10,49],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2197","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-rv-10-build-project","category-section-11-empennage-attach"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/rv10.mirimar.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2197","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/rv10.mirimar.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/rv10.mirimar.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rv10.mirimar.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rv10.mirimar.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2197"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/rv10.mirimar.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2197\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2202,"href":"https:\/\/rv10.mirimar.org\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2197\/revisions\/2202"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/rv10.mirimar.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2197"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rv10.mirimar.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2197"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rv10.mirimar.org\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2197"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}<\/a>The elevator pushrod is made from a 73″ piece of AT6-035 x 1.5″ aluminum tubing and an appropriately sized threaded insert.\u00a0 Here the circumference of the tube is measured for accurately drilling six evenly spaced #30 holes.
