  1. Flush a5 rivets in this section. I can't seem to find any in my kit but a bigger concern is that can one really make it truly flush. Why wouldn't I drill another two holes in the bottom plate and just rivet it all with a5. From what I can see they must want the upper hinge captive ??? Lyndon
  2. Found em. Thanks
  3. Thanks will look in that section
  4. I have looked everywhere in my manual. No mention of fit these or even a pic. I can find them in the parts list. Sg011 x2. They look like they belong here and hold the inspection panel. Am I correct ??? Lyndon
  5. I think I have the fuse sorted. Those home made bars did the trick. Most of the issues at the front with double longerons. Off to Melbourne now so Monday I reckon I can rivet it all up fingers crossed. Best part of a week setting up this fuse. Lyndon
  6. Well I was to have the colour on the rudder alerons stabilizer elevator and fin but I'm waiting on my solid rivet dies to finish them. I've done my wheels and landing gear and struts in colour. I may have an engine fingers crossed. Lyndon
  7. Yep but I can't do the wings yet as I'm waiting on tanks
  8. I've got wings to do. Be a while yet I'm sure
  9. Correct. Thus the longeron is only primed on the inside. The outside will be rubbed and primed just prior to painting. Lyndon
  10. I dip all my rivets in the same two pack primer. I'm thinking that should work ??? Lyndon
  11. I agree. Havnt drilled it yet. Having another look and running a measure over skin vs the holes. The tape is telling me I will fit. Time to have a cuppa
  12. Time to drill another rivet I think. The bottom lonererons are side specific. On these the rivets are off set except where a rib joins them. See pic one. Now on the rib a where it meets the longeron at rib a the holes are off set. There is no way in the world I can rivet the rib to the longeron see pic two. Thinking just drill another hole for an extra rivet. Thoughts. Lyndon
  13. Will do at bunnings now. My tyres arrived from the states today. Happy as. $40 bucks from USA to Adelaide. Have to be happy with that.
  14. I will see if I can get them locally. Lyndon
  15. No never heard of it. But I'm pretty sure of what it will look like. Will get onto it . Thanks Lyndon
  16. Will do. The fuse is just miss behaving as all the rivets don't line up. Especially the A and B rib. I want it cleacoed before rivets. Lyndon
  17. Ta. The fuse is a bit of work. Alignment of rivets seems to be a job and a half. In a day or two hopefully it will be done. Lyndon
  18. Front lower hatch fixing support question. What am I missing. How does this work. Is it bent over to catch the lip. A rod installed to make a hinge. Nothing in my manual except rivet it the hatch ??? Lyndon
  19. Nope it's almost done 2000.
  20. Thoughts on a 100 hp Rotax out of hours at a flying school. Soft start 2009 all serviced by a lame. Or is second hand to be avoided. Lyndon
  21. Bloody manual. Parts list for the rear fuselage. All primed and ready to go. Then during assembly all these other parts are required. If I went by the manual you button up the skins then you can't fit these angulars. Luckily I haven't riveted it all up. But I now need to set up and prime again. No economy of scale. Lyndon
  22. Thanks will have a look at that Lyndon
  23. Great I shall get riveting. Any tips on the trim wiring through the fuse ?? Lyndon
  24. So what your saying is I can go ahead and rivet up the fuselage skins and leave the elevator cables for a later date when I fit the tail. ?? Thanks Lyndon
  25. Now jumping a step. If I close up the fuse. Including the cargo area wiring for the trim and I have the rudder cables. I will be able to fit the elevator cables ok afterward s Lyndon
