| Subject: | Trim damper assembly |
Hi everyone,
Im wondering if anyone else has encountered this problem with the trim damper assembly
as I have.
>From Page 19-2 - Figure 2, the TS04A bolt is placed through the support bracket
- however, when I installed the Nyloc Nut M10 and putting in safety (only by
about 1 thread). The spring is fully compressed and causes binding with operating
the electric trim.
I can't see an easy way out of this and I have been thinking of removing the spring
and cutting one or two spirals of the spring.
Can anyone kindly offer some wisdom on this?
Many thanks
Tony

Hi
That is one good looking aircraft. One thing that worries me though is
if you spill fuel whilst re-fuelling, will it damage the decals?
Best regards

Michigan (sales@alwanwraps.com). For $250, they created a CAD image of a trigear
and worked with me to layout the artwork. And then the decals were $450 including
the tail and wheel pants. I'm assuming that anyone else wouldn't have
to pay the full $240 since the CAD work is done already. See attached pics. Really
happy with the results.

Not had a problem.
Whenever Ive come across something thats doesnt seem to work I always go back to
the manual to check I have the right items and assembled them correctly.
For example the thickness washer placed under the head of a bolt instead of the
nut meant the shoulder of the bolt did not go all the way through a control rod
end resulting in too much play in the control. Corrected and all works fine.

Well, now that flying the europa is starting to become a bit more second nature,
do we make it more enjoyable to fly?
Really don't enjoy the noise of a racing bike any more; so its time to shut those
fricken carburettors up!
Today has been a day of distraction, instead of fitting new hydraulic hoses to
some heavy machinery, and there's nothing better than playing with a europa..
The plenum box has been extracted and Cad'd up to analyse its flow and acoustic
aspects; its basically currently acting as a fantastic resonator boosting induction
noise straight through the firewall.
Today has been spent looking at Mass Flow and Dynamic Pressure through the assembly
at 6000rpm WOT.
The target objective will be implementing passive noise attenuation features to
mitigate carburettor induction noise ingress to the cockpit.
