Just rubs on the rivet. My concern is its so close. In the air with load on it it may still rub without knowing how much clearance should be there while static. I would have thought about 3 or 4 mm minimum. I have zero now so it's a lot to find .

Next issue is the elevator rubs on the stabilizer. Can't see why or an easy fix other than a mallet. Just scuffs as it cycles

Lyndon

Holes don't match. Before I drill it. One is Bush size one is bolt size .

Thanks Lyndon

Tab that I had all along. I'm not the smartest but the manual isn't real good

I've. Pulled apart my stabilizer. Fitted the upgraded trim

I think your correct

So did I. Mine has a full a full length tab and mounts on the side in the kit ???

I just have the servo on the left side

Servo trim tab.. Manual mentions a right side motor ???.

Got it. Thanks

Same here. Looks straightforward.

Thanks Lyndon

Two white wires. Just reverse the polarity. 9 volt battery will even work

Same I think. 5 wires. Earth and an up and down I take it. ??? Anyone know the colours

Lyndon

Safely that should say

Just learnt something. I bought the upgraded trim tab kit. Primed it and I'm now fitting it. It's exactly the same as my kit. Bugger . Anyway with the 15 and 16 mm of movement on the tab. Can I just power up the unit safety or do I have to wait till the plane is ready to fly and adjust it. Be a lot easier to it while I'm building it on the bench.

Lyndon

Great thanks

Had a quick look but can't find it. Take it this is a tool for adjusting something ??? Much later in the build.

Lyndon

Good advice. Thanks

All sorted. Lots of advice. A new day and I have it worked out. Thanks again. Lots more questions to come.

Lyndon

Ok all sorted. Drill the holes and get them sealed. The two inside tanks are balanced. Then when I use the manifold and turn that on all 4 tanks are balanced and drain evenly. Thus one level sigbt. On that what am looking for as far fittings for it. I have two large brass ( outlets for the two standard tanks and three small brass fittings. My thinking is two for the sight level and only one return to one tank seeing they are balanced. ??

I have the on off Tao and fittings. Two breathers. Two outlets and then three small fittings. Return and sight level ???

Lyndon

Makes sense with the manifold. Breathers come out of the lower skin I see. Found some brass outlets with a copper washer for the tanks. The breathing outlets have nothing. Seems less than ideal. But it must work

Still have no idea what that spring is for the outlet of the long range tanks

Lyndon

Sorry the manifold

One set is always open. One set I can closed. I would think if a return line is used run it to set open always it will work fune.

This will help me sort it out.

Do the standard tanks have return lines.

Do the long range tanks have return lines.

The manifold set I have allows for set of tanks to be turned off. This would have die consequences if the set turned off was full with a return line installed. I would think the outside tanks would be used first in a perfect world. Then shut off and the inner tanks turned on. But the manifold set won't allow either or or both. One set can't be turned off. Then the other set is turned on in tandem with the other set.

Lyndon

So I drill an 11 mm hole. Fit this with no o ring and she is ready to go ???. What's with the spring hanging out one end ???. The manual says about some return lines ???. I just looked at the original tanks. From what I can see they just thread in to the tank. No but ??? Let alone a hole they go into to.

Lyndon

Seems strange. What seals it. Can't seem to find it in my manual. Will have another look.
