Subject: | Wing drag cables and fittings |
Hi John I'm not sure what other builders have done with their compression
struts but I left mine free until after I did a pre-trammel of the wing pan
el ( 3 piece wing) and then glued them in with T-88.
The airleron has a seperate spar set which is shown in cross section in t
he lower left hand corner of drawing five of the plans. I hope I understo
od your question correctly and this is of some help. Ed G.

00Sorry guys obviously I am not in a position to offer advice as I am still
looking at drawings while I wait for my spar material to come in. Please b
are with me for what may appear foolish or premature questions: Are compres
sion struts supposed to be free floating and not securely fastened glued or
nailed?The aileron cut: does that cut include a rip of the spar or is ther
e another piece that gets is added that runs along the spar? Where does tha
t part of the aileron come from? For some reason I am not seeing where that
part comes from and I don't see a call out for that part in the drawings.
What am I missing?ThanksJohn

Jack=92s tip on holding the compression struts in place reminded me of what
I did on mine. I made little plywood sockets out of 1/8=94 plywood=2C jus
t large enough for the end of the compression strut ti fit inside the socke
t. I glued the sockets in place on the spar where the compression struts w
ould go. The struts then just nest inside the sockets and are held in plac
e by the compression applied by the drag and anti-drag wires. No nails or
glue hold the struts in place. The sockets were just a way to hold them un
til the wires were tensioned=2C and to keep them from slipping sideways due
to shock loads. I don=92t have a good picture showing exactly what I did
but you can see the end of the bottom right inboard compression strut sitti
ng in its socket in this picture:

John,
The struts can be handled either way, I glued mine. I attached a
picture of the aileron (inboard side). You add 3 pieces span wise. The
first will end up being the spar that the aileron attaches to, the
middle one is the aileron front spar and the last is the aileron rear
spar. The piece lying on top is the inboard side of the aileron. Hope
this helps.
Jack

John:
Sory for the dealyed reply as we have been without power here for a few
days.
I have the Wag Aero filler neck in aluminum cat # E-448-000 and it is
1.25 inch tall.
I also have a mild steel one cat # E-323-000 and is the same height and
is threaded and fits in to flange Cat # E-322-000
