Check the static air pressure sensor and air box pressure sensor connections. Blow
the connectors out with air and to the same with the TCU unit,.
Is you TCU mounted with the plug upwards on the mast if so be very careful with
water and blow out with air .
Good luck

Hi Richard,
Although now retired I still follow the forum, so I noticed your query.
The new torque tube only came in shortly before I retired at Xmas 2009,
say mid 2009 from memory, so yours will definitely not be the new
heavier one.
Best wishes for the build,
Roger Bull

Hi Phil
I received a mono kit from Roger in late 2007 and I'm ashamed to say
that I haven't touched the torque tube yet to know if it is the heavier
version you describe - and I haven't seen a revised build manual or Mod
73 exemption that would take it into account - please can you tell me
when did you get the new version from Roger, to give me a guide as to
whether mine might be the new version with my kit?
Thanks
regards
Richard

Hi Rowland,
With regards to the new re-designed torque tube then I have one of
these. As Roger put it to me, the new torque tube no longer has any
torque.
Basically the whole design has been beefed up and there are now only
2 pins involved, not 4, see attached photo.
My main concern when I received this was the weight increase. My
numbers are below:
Old Tube:
TP4 - 1350g
2 x TP5 & TP6 - 270g
TP9 - 200g
2 x TP12 - 800g
Total = 2.620kg or 5.776lb
New Tube:
TP4 - 1330g
2 x TP5 & TP6 - 330g
TP9 - 1250g
2 x TP12 - 1060g
Total = 3.970kg or 8.752lb - 52% above original.
NB. (Pat Tunney's clamps would add 0.4kg bringing an original
assembly to 3.0kg).
My mind was originally put at rest when I was told that monos (or
conventional taildraggers as my aircraft is likely to be) like having an
aft c of g and so this additional weight at the back would be ok. I
tried not to think about it too much and decided it would be ok ......
Hope that helps.
Regards,
Phil
