Steve, I would follow the principle of 'Think light' in all your
building. I agree there is no benefit in having stick trim adjustment.
Having a simple PTT button on top of the stick, possibly an elegant
wooden domed one), is well worthwhile. But otherwise consider just
wrapping the top 4 or 5 ins of the stick in thin leather, suede or
Alcantara. It may encourage you to a lighter finger type grip of the
stick rather than a gorilla grasp of one of those contured handles!

I have a Ray Allen G101 on P2 side and G205 on P1. I use the pitch trim on the
grip as much as l do the rocker on the panel.
They work well and I do recommend them. ALso very easy to connect to the Ray
Allen servos in the above configuration.

Hi All,
It may be me, but the pads seem to be binding on the disk.
I've had the caliper off and changed the o ring, but as the force fro the piston
to the pad is not central the unit keeps in contact with the disk as there is
no spring to part the two. Has anyone come up wth an Feynman solution to solve
this?
TIA.
John.

indeed the piston is off-center and ends up jamming due to its wear angle.
I have reduced the effect somewhat by trimming some of the inside corners
of the piston's pad. It's a lousy design.

A Beringer wheel is a good solution albeit a tad expensive. David Joyce,

I usually just do it. Not really difficult. It is/was the same doing a C of A airtest.
The aircraft was flown to VNE also. I suppose its for the reasons given
above. Drop the LAA a line and ask the reasons why. There is a brief description
on the VNE test in TL 2.06

Grease applied to lube points? It does make a difference.

Pete,
I looked for a good comfortable grip for ages. Eventually went for grips from long
handled garden edge shears. They are green which is my colour scheme.
They are a great success but I had to embed a press to transmit in the top. Neat
job.
Just my pennyworth,
Worth a rummage at the garden centre though.
Cheers

Hi All
We are close to fitting out the fuselage and need to source stick grips. I'
ve looked at the Ray Allen offerings but wonder if anyone has fitted other types
and can give feedback??
We will have standard elevator trim only so don't really need 4 way trimmin g but
willing to listen to any good advice.
Kind Regards
