The reqired range is set out in the build manual. If you are not getting the full range it certainly needs sorting before anyy more flying Regards, David Joyce, GXSDJ On 2017-07-10 21:06, graeme bird wrote: > > Looking at the counter balance weight movement and a rough assessment of angle of movement of the stabilator (down), the weight is not travelling so far down the slot and the angle not so great and I am wondering what the cause could be? > The main tube has not rotated. I presume that if one of the tubes at the bottom of the control column rotated the distance between the two bearing ends would be the same (until one came unthreaded). It didnt seem to be anything to do with the pitch autopilot. Any one else seen this? Or have a clue for me. I'm currently musing on it while on holiday so no access for investigation till I am back, I did do some brief investigating though. > A lack of tail down control might explain the feeling of "running out of air" in my last two (slightly abrupt) landings; with not much airspeed and needing to flare to arrest descent. > > -------- > Graeme Bird > G-UMPY - Mono Classic/XS FFW 912S, Woodcomp 3000/3W CS, trutrak Gemini 2 axis AP, PAW, PFLARM core, ads-b out, 8.33khz, mode S, FP-5, Aera500, SD on Nexus, SmartA3 > 290 hours & 5 years on the Mono, 930 total > g(at)gdbmk.co.uk > > Read this topic online here: > > http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=470878#470878 [1] > Links: ------ [1] http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=470878#470878 [2] http://www.matronics.com/Navigator?Europa-List [3] http://forums.matronics.com [4] http://wiki.matronics.com [5] http://www.matronics.com/contribution ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 03:34:38 AM PST US Subject: Europa-List: North Coates this weekend! From: "JonSmith" Hi, just a quick reminder for anyone interested that this weekend (15th/ 16th July) is our North Coates "Wings and Wheels" fly-in that David kindly included in the Europa Flyer and Club events listing page. If the weather is anything like, then it's a nice and enjoyable event to go along to, it's a very friendly club and an airfield with an interesting heritage. We have a "Heritage room" with exhibits and memorabilia of the airfield over the years - the earliest recorded aircraft movement was in 1916! No landing fees and excellent burgers from the BBQ for just 3! Routing up the east coast will give you a lovely view of the Lincolnshire coastline and you will certainly see hundreds of seals on the shoreline in the Donna Nook area. The Donna Nook range will be closed (its weekday only) so no problems there. The airfield is easy - a nice 760 M grass runway, 23/05 with air-ground radio on 120.15. The event is also being supported by the International Auster Club so if you like looking at those then this might be the place to come......! There will be Car & Motorcycle clubs displaying as well as other organisations. A BBMF Hurricane flypast is scheduled for the Sunday and if we are lucky the Search &a Rescue helicopter based at Humberside sometimes does a "practice" winch pick up during these weekends....! Sadly for me, despite requesting the weekend off, I have to go to work for all of it so won't be around. The club secretary and one of the main stalwarts of all our events (Brian) has assured me that a warm welcome will be made to everyone attending. So, fingers crossed for the weather and to anyone interested in going, have a great time!
