Hey Steve thats fantastic!
On my mono, 18 lbs tire pressure turns it into a C172 for landing.
Anything more and it
turns into a squirrely ass POS! I really think it has a lot to do with
outrigger height off the
ground. If you always get the tailwheel down first, then the wing is done
flying and the
outriggers will be closer to the ground as the wing is no longer flexing up,
allowing less
shenanigans on the roll out. My outriggers just barely touch the ground
sitting on the tarmac with no load. I find too that with a passenger, the
outriggers are even lower and landings are a
yawner.

Steve,
Dave Anderson,( xs914 motorglider Minden, NV), he was quick to point out
tire pressure could be a problem. He said, high pressures would
contribute to wild handling on landings and that lower tire pressures
greatly improved the situation. I will fwd your note on to him, he no
longer follows the list, so he can get back to you with his findings.

lower tire pressure means a bigger slip angle on the ground and that
will make the initial grab in yaw less agressive also. I think you'r
right about the outriggers, less wobble when they are both firmly on the
ground.

Subject: | the ultimate ventilator |
Decided that these would be the ventilators for me. Although i have a deep rooted
distrust to anything that is called perfect or ultimate :-)
But:
Although there are countersunk screws supplied with the unit, there is no thread
in the holes. There remains also a small gap between the valve and the body
of the unit. The ventilaters are unpainted, blanc aluminium. Do i have some rejects
or is this normal for these ultimate articles?
Kind Regards,
Jos Okhuijsen

Jos,
I know that Rich Schultz has them installed in his machine and he
says they work very well.
I have a pair for installation in my aircraft one of these days (pics
on my build site). They are plain aluminum, not painted. They close
very well, without any gaps. I don't remember right now if the
holes are threaded or not. And being in Houston until the 6th I
can't just run out and check. If you don't have an answer by then,
I'll check mine and let you know.
Good building and great flying,

So maybe the problem is not the air pressure but as Glen suggest it is the
outriggers distance from the ground? Suspicious!

Subject: | aileron fitting to wing |
--> Europa-List message posted by: Fred Klein <fklein@orcasonline.com>
Gentlemen,
First, it's inspiring to read about flying experiences w/ our wonderful
little birds...especially to one who has only recently been able to get
down to some serious work on his XS mono kit. Care to take a stroll
down memory lane?
I've checked the archives on the subject of fitting the ailerons to the
wing and found no previous posts which deal with the particular problem
I've created for myself...indulge me for a moment.
Fitting the starboard aileron to the wing seemed like a piece of
cake...plenty of travel, no rubbing or snags.
The port aileron has been a somewhat different story...the first thing
I noticed after clecoing it in place was significant rubbing of the top
surface on the trailing edge closeout. Then I noticed that the trailing
edge of the port aileron was 1/8" short of the trailing tip of the
wingtip, whereas the starboard aileron was 3/8" short of the wingtip.
I also noticed that the offset between the flap closeout and the
aileron closeout on the starboard wing was 1 inch but on the port wing
it was 1.5 inches.
The net result of these differences appeared to be that the starboard
wing/aileron would have between 1/4 and 1/2 inch more chord that of the
port wing. I found no references in the manual which noted this as a
design feature; after taking numerous comparative measurements, it
appeared that the aileron closeout and hinge line of the port wing was
between 1/4 and 1/2 inch further aft than on the starboard wing. It
appeared to me that a bit of trimming would equalize the wing area, and
by moving the port aileron forward, I would reduce the rubbing between
it and the closeout.
Accordingly, I proceeded to trim (first) the lower trailing edge of the
port wing and re-established the hinge rebates, trial fitted the
aileron, and subsequently trimmed back the top trailing edge of the
closeout. After remeasuring, I found I had two wing/ailerons of the
same size.
Ahh...that pesky law of unintended consequences!...for now I find that
with "up" aileron, the leading edge of the aileron hits the inside
surface of the closeout...and...I do not have the required amount of
travel with "up" aileron limited to about 20 degrees.
To dig myself out of this hole, I propose to shave back a portion of
the leading edge of the aileron which is buried in the wing trailing
edge closeout and re-glass as necessary.
At this point, I'm wondering if I've been too anal retentive about
having my wing/ailerons match (?)... whether others have noticed
similar variations and let them be (?)...or whether my "fix" seems
reasonable (?). Comments Please!
Fred

Also watch for brake calliper rubbing against tyre sidewall especially
during turns. If this happens it will leave a mark on the side of the
tyre.

I tried 18 psi and found it too mushy for me. I inflate to 24psi,have
360hrs on the same tire & original tube, no problem yet. Sam N77EU
