Subject: | Re: Seat back question |
Oscar,
Thanks for your suggestions and the link to your site. Your rebuild was well-detailed
and helpful.
Now, not trying to beat the horse any more dead, but my final question on the subject
regarding expanding the rudder pedal openings--- higher, wider, or both?
I've read recommendations for both which is what I am planning on, but it'd
be nice to know for certain before putting a blade to the plywood.

you may not have to notch the diagonal. Attach the front/rear interconnect
bar to the left side of the rear stick and the right side of the front (or
vice-versa) and it should clear=2C mine did!

Or, if the sticks are not made yet, weld tabs center-line on both sticks and fit
the connecting tube between them. This will also give you equal stick throw
left and right.

Built in 2002 and has flown about 200 hours. No engine. Has a mount for a Continental
A or C series or an O-200. Needs some rib repair in the left wing.
I would strip the whole airplane and recover it just to see everything. Currently
disassembled for trailering. If you're planning to build one here is a way
to get flying two or three years sooner. Also have a mid time A-65 which would
be an ideal unit for it. ($3,500). Reply to wyliejohnson45@gmail.com and
I'll send pictures. Located in Knoxville TN

Remember, you don't get something for nothing. If your 2 blade is absorbing all
the horsepower the Corvair can produce you will actually lose performance due
to the additional parasite drag of that 3rd blade.
Possible benefits: The blades can be shorter and increase ground clearance.
Reduced tip speeds from the smaller diameter can reduce the noise. You can let
it turn a little faster and maybe gain some horsepower. It might help takeoff
and climb but not likely to do any good at cruise. Higher fuel burn if you
do that.

Subject: | Cables; control and brace |
Just starting to make up all the tail brace and control cables for my Piet
and have a couple of questions.
Where the cable joins the turnbuckle are you using a cable loop or a pin en
d to couple to the cable? Or a cable shackle? There is all kinds of informa
tion on how to safety the turnbuckles and make cable eyes but not on joinin
g the two.
It would be nice if the thimble/cable end could be made up through the turn
buckle end; it would save on some expensive hardware. Anybody have=C2- pi
ctures of cable/turnbuckle couplings?
Appreciate your help.

Hi Jack,
Thanks for the great picture. I was not sure the thimble would fit through the
turnbuckle eye but it sure does. I was adding up the cost of the cable shackles
I would need for all the connections last night and could feel my billfold shrink.
The web site is great; thanks again.

When using the chain link it is advisable to use the AN-111 cable
bushings instead of thimbles.

The A-65 is a very good match for the Air Camper. Especially in the lower
elevations where you don't have to climb very high. It's reliability is
legendary.

Last time I was at Brodhead I think it was the landing gear I was taking ph
otos of; this year hopefully it will be of wings and struts.
Thanks Ben,

HI Shad,
I got some #50 links from Home Depot a couple of months ago as I started getting
parts together to make cables.
Thanks,

Swaged fittings really do look like nicer and appear to have less drag as well;
but couldn't find anyone here in our local chapter that had the tools to do the
swaged fittings.
Thanks Michael,

When using the chain link it is advisable to use the AN-111 cable bushings instead
of thimbles.
Hi Greg,
Thanks for the drawing; I had not even thought of using the cable bushings; wasn't
sure really what they were.
Thanks,
Jim B.

Thanks Gary I'll get free for it.Would love to go.Eventually I'll sell this
house and go to Colorado or AZ.That's where I'll set up permanently and
really be able to build.That's why I'm so stuck on a higher alt engine.Also
I've hit some heavy air in a hang glider.Do you know what the negative G
stress loading is on a piet.I'm sure if I cross the mountains it will be
early morning but I'd like to know.I'm aware this isn't a stunt plane,nor d
o
I want one. But I've been nailed before.
