Anyone know where in the UK I could buy smallish quantities of pins
and receptacles for molex plugs - CPC etc only do bags of 100 or larger.

Have you tried Fanell? They generally do them in an MOQ of 10.

Subject: | Aileron hinge wear |
On the two Europa XS's in Norway with more than 20 hours flying time,
the outer hinge on both ailerons on both aircraft has developed
noticeable wear. When the ailerons were mounted, no play was noticed -
not-perfect alignment of the two hinges removed the play that exists in
these MS-hinges even when new. The ailerons were carefully balanced
after filling and painting, as per the BM.
No wear is noticed on the inner aileron hinges, nor on the rudder or
trim tab hinges.
We have both monitored this carefully, without discovering any increased
play over the roughly 50 + hours flown since first discovering this.
However, this does not rule out that wear may continue at a low rate.
The outer hinge is fitted a fair distance from the tip. Even with tight
outer hinge, the tip may be moved easily up or down without applying
much force due to the flexibility of the aileron's structure.
Could the cause of this be small vibrations in the outer, unsupported
part of the aileron when activating the aileron (i.e. not streamlined
aft of the wing)?
Even if the outer hinges were tight, the flexibility "does not look
right". I have not found any other aircraft design at my local field
where the ailerons flex like this.
I have now fitted an additional, third hinge on each aileron, at the tip
and of the same type and length as the original outer hinge (which I
have left in place).
Anyone else with similar experience?
