The parts of the fittings that will extend out beyond the surface will be painted eventually to match the color scheme of the aircraft. Is it oaky to leave the hidden fittings with just a primer on them? I am concerned only about future corrosion. -------- Do Not Archive John Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=369352#369352 ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 02:56:49 AM PST US From: "Jack Phillips" Subject: RE: Pietenpol-List: Primed metal fittings It is not only OK, it's standard practice. Why add the weight (paint is actually pretty heavy) where it is not needed?

The exposed metal will be painted after fabric applic ation to match their location color.

ACS sells them, they are "Ray Allen trim systems". I didn't get the fancy position indicator or anything, just a switch and a servo. I'm being lazy and trying to just get done so I'm just making a hinged trim tab off the back edge of the elevator. Rick did a much nicer installation where he cut out a trim tab and did all that.

I have seen pictures of your plane and the work you have done on it and thi nk it is great. Most of what you have done is original and new and requires a lot of work and talent. I would guess that if you start to rush things n ow, you will regret it later. The workmanship and quality may not meet the rest of the aircraft. You may miss the time frames you would like to meet, but the entire plane will be the way you want it. Just my personal thought.

It works very well but it is heavy. I think the servo would be a bet ter way to go.
