I did my elec ail trim differently - I put the trim servo in the aileron bellcrank
bay impinging the pushrod in a similar fashion the the manual trim so I can't
help about wire routing.
That having been said, I am interested in hearing other solutions as it would apply
to any control stick wiring as well.

--> RV-List message posted by: "Jim Jewell" <jjewell@telus.net>
Hello,
I am looking for suggestions and possibly pictures of how others have
arranged the wire run out of the aileron and through, or around? the rear
spar.
The trim tab on my 6a is at the out board end of the aileron.
My concern is the same as one query I read in the archives;
How to avoid or at least minimize undue bending and chafing of the wire
during in flight operation?

Sensenich prop I needed from a great guy in this group. Dan

I wouldn't buy a core with an unknown history for o'h or
exchange. The core you have sounds like an excellent candidate for
overhaul, and that would be our recommendation. You won't really know
what the condition of the internal components are until the engine is in
teardown, but if your cases, crank and cam are repairable, you are
making a good investment in going with a quality overhaul shop.
I own a PA-28-180 with 2140 TTSN. I have replaced one jug about 200 hrs
ago. This is a 1965 aircraft. It has always been inside and maintained better
than recommended. I would not even consider exchanging it for an unknown
case etc. Especially with the crankshaft problems LYC is having these days.
My
C/S might be 41 years old, but they sure didn't have any AD notes on them
every year! If you have a clean, tight, good running engine I would not even
consider anything except an overhaul by someone you personally know and
trust.

Scott,
I took these apart and re-assembled (but for a different
reason). No it was not difficult; the larger 1/8"
rivets are easy to drill out without disturbing the hole
by using a smaller drill and working up in size. The
only issue you may have will be to squeeze or pound the
rivets upon assembly - I have a larger (double piston)
squeezer that handles the 1/8" rivets.
I took mine apart to make them look nice.

My outer left aileron bearing was frozen on my 1986 rv6 kit. I called vans
and was told to just press it out and repress a new one, which I did and
havent had any trouble. Do you have your plans?

Jeff,
My wing kit is mid 90s vintage and there is a revision on the bearings from
the pressed in (small) bearing to the com-3-5 (large) bearings. According to
Ken the smaller one were pressed in but they were concerned with them coming
out so they went to the larger bearings that are sandwiched (captured)
between the hinge plates and riveted together thus requiring disassembling
to replace. No fun...

I was over at Berryville today and heard that BVT had taken a bad jhit in the Sun
night Tornado. I flew over it on way back and saw that FBO boulding was pretty
much gone, and hanger beside it to the north was destroyed, i saw 2 planes
upside down/on end in the FBO and about 6or 7 torn up in and beside the hanger
buildings remains. I know there are at least 2 RV's At BVT, but lost contact,
anybody have any knowledge? Charlie Heathco

Listers-
I have a buddy that has a Bike Friday for sale. He is a serious competition
street bike rider and this folding bike just didn't fit the bill for him. I
have the bike currently in my possession and it is a nice Candy Red finish,
in like new condition, is equipped with Campagnolo (sp) derailleurs, has been
ridden a total of 500 miles and includes a tough plastic travel case.
I believe he wants USD $700 for it, so if you're interested, e-mail me
directly and I will put you in touch with him.
