Subject: | control stick bushing |
Hey guys, section 39-8 talks about inserting a bushing in the control stick
base before bolting it to the WD-1010 control arm. I can't find any info
about this bushing, whether I made it or it came in the kit etc. Can
anyone shed light on what I'm to do here?
Thx, Rick

I just replaced mine. I was sick of the play and machined a Delrin
bushing. No play and smoother feel. The bushing ID was too small for
my OD using the brass bushing supplied in the kit.

Interested in selling a couple of those. I have some play in mine, not
a lot, but enough that I don=99t like it. I tried a couple of
things to tighten it up.but have not been totally successful.
I am also interested in your gopro mount once you produce them. I made
one myself..but it is nowhere near as cool as yours. J

Hey Rene',
I am reluctant to sell the bushings for the controls. Not only am I
afraid to sell them but they are all different lengths and different
IDs'. I noticed my weldment is not perfectly round from Vans. They
weld this unit and warp it in the process so the hole is not consistant.
The only way they get a bushing in there is to make it way undersize.
They would do better if they welded it and then drilled/reamed the hole
afterward. That's what we did. I took out the weldment and redrilled
the hole barely oversize then made the custom plastic bushing to fit in
the new hole. A lot of work for it but worth it.
I'll put you on the list for the GoPro mount and let you know when they
come available.
Thanks Rene, Let me know if I can help otherwise.
Sean

Hmmm, It appears I never got those bushings in the kit or used them
somewhere else. I could make bushings out of brass
I have a piece of Delrin here I could use too. Sean, do you think the
delrin is tough enough? (I guess obviously you do)
Looking at the piece of Delrin I have, it sure appears tough/strong
enough. Thx for the good idea.

Are any RV-10 folks coming to Sun 'n Fun and maybe interested in showing what you and your airplane can do in a timed event? See http://www.sun-n-fun.org/FlyIn/EventActivitiesAndSchedules/SprintsandCatShots.aspx for details and registration. We are trying to bring back some competitive fun for fly-in attendees.

For what it's worth, recommend just getting the part from Van's.
One of the pure RV characteristics is the silky, no play controls. Ream out
the bell crank assembly per the plans, then trim the brass bushing slightly
longer than the bell crank tube. This ensures the bushing is fully captured
by the through bolt such that the bell crank rotates on the bushing, not the
through bolt. Add a film of grease on the bushing during assembly and you
have years of worry free operation.
