Karel,
our common and prestigious friend - Dirk -
checked my plane and also those bearings
couple of months ago as you know. He did
not noticed anything wrong with the bearings.
He said only "they are very /too sensitive
- try to take all the grease away to aid rigging".
The ball is about 2 mm out of the bearing flange.
If I turn it 180 degrees, it is again 2 mm out of
the bearing = it is symmetrical.
So, my guess is: there are two kind of the flap
bearings in use on the Europa-market:
w restricted and unrestricted movements.
Could you please send me a close-up photo of
your bearing?
Regards, Raimo

Raimo,
I rotate the bearing ball by the finger for about 20 and it never goes
inside. So if you can push the ball outside the bearing than there is
something wrong with the bearings.

Jerry / Jeff.
Thanks for your replies. I'll go back in the hangar
this afternoon, with my wee meter, and check again.

it is not the ball that's assymetric, I think it's the journal it is
mounted in. Then, when it is placed in the receptacle wrong way it
doesn't protrude quite as far in the housing centre hole.
I habvn't looked in the Europa manual, mine is hidden in a box somewhere!

The ball assembly (i.e. ball and its non-detachable outer race) need to be
placed right in to the bearing carrier (i.e. the part that fits in to the
end of the flap operating tube). Otherwise the ball will turn 180+deg.
The bearing carrier has a lip protruding on the inner diameter that prevents
the ball turning more than a few degrees, when properly registered.
Or, if the ball assembly if a loose fit in the carrier, then as the ball
turns it will push itself out against the inner lip to allow 180 deg ball
rotation.

yes - the ball is symmetric and the journal box is assymmetric,
because it has a flange. At least my journal box has a flange.
Thats why it is impossible to intall the journal box wrong way
in the receptacle. Just like Kingley stated.
Europa manual does not give a light.
I got a message from one builder&operator from the States:
he has really got two kind of bearings; a fully rotating one and
a restricted one. He has problems w restricted one (of course!).
**
"I have this problem. Interestingly enough one ball rotates completely
and the other doesn't and there is no obvious difference."
**
So, my guess was right. There are two kinds of the flap bearings.
Think it is basically the guestion of quality (or lack of it).
Have to live (and rigg) with it.

Raimo,
Meanwhile I saw your answer to Graham. Now you are to the point. Look at the
pictures I made. Number one and two are with extreme left and extreme right
position. You barely can see the difference. So this means that the movement
is restricted. Number three shows the pin in the flap. You will notice that
I made a cone to guide the rod with the bearing to the pin and no rigging
problems.

Karel Vranken, # 447 F-PKRL

Raaimo
Duncan explained it better than I did but there are three parts to the
assembly
1 sphere
2 bearing journal
3 bearing carrier/bearing box
It seems one of your bearings is not fully entered into the bearing
carrier. That's why the spre can rotate 360

Raimo,
The bearing that is rotating, is not deep enough in the socket. Take a
tube on the outer ring and hit it, while someone supports the other end of
the flap tube. That should move it the millimeter that is missing.
