(Pete) ________________________________ Message 1 _____________________________________ Time: 08:40:35 AM PST US Subject: Europa-List: Re: MG wing spar - mono gear pushrod: design change? From: "rparigoris" Hi Pete I have an XS Mono A-265. It has an accelerated cockpit module. I can assure you that it's not possible to have a solid pushrod work with both wings on my bird. I dealt with problem by installing a cable: http://www.europaowners.org/main.php?g2_itemId=386633 In addition due to location my fuel tank is situated it's not possible to fit the larger spar. The fuel tank would need to be ripped out and re-positioned to use full size spar. I will deal with that by making a new spar mold to fit my bird that is a tiny bit narrower. Ron P.

From: "rparigoris" Hi Pete Just to clarify, spar needs to be a little narrower in height, not width. Ron P.

Thx Ron for the detailed description. I would also like to hear how the factory has done it since their approval of the long wings. As per Richards reply, the factory does have a new pushrod, and i wonder how they solved the interference issues you have described. Pity they dont monitor this group. Cheers Pete First flights of re-badged C-GNPZ today. What a fun machine! > On Dec 28, 2019, at 11:46 AM, rparigoris wrote: > > > Hi Pete > I have an XS Mono A-265.
