RE: Tailwind-List: Stabilizer settingThanks Jim, Malcolm and Bob. I have the stab
in the top hole of the plate now and will just have to see what happens when
I test fly. The Stab tube is welded against the bottom of the top longeron
so I should be OK there.
Thanks again for the help.
Bill

hi dont know what the angle of the dangle is on the horv . stab. on the trike
. but i do know it was to high in the front to start with we ended up with the
bolt setting in the lowest hole all the way to the bottom of my adjustment
. and still have to to have a small trim tab on the bottom of the elevator .
the cause of this is that i didnt have the horizontal tube up far enough against
the top longeron . when i welded it in . i had the four diagonals all ready
welded to the lower and upper longerons. so the horizontal tube that you
slide the horizontal stablizer on to is about a 1/2 to3/4in to low . so i ended
up in the very bottom of my bolt hole adjustment on the leading where it meets
the fusalage adj. holes. just another screw up that Jim bailed me out on one
of many others Bob Danner

Bill, Right, my stab and wing appear to measured the same. The measurement
ahead of the strut might not be a good comparision as it has the boot cowl
wrapped around the longeron. On some of my other TWs it seems the stab was
about 1/2 degree down on the front. It's a uncomfortable feeling when the
airplane wants to pitch over when the stick is let loose. Without the
wheelpants it will for sure. Maybe Malcolm could check his. I'll also check
with Bob and Russ when I see them. Jim C

| Subject: | Re: Nose Gear tubing |
Weav, I actually did something very similar. I bolted the engine to the
dynafocal ring and aligned it with the fuselage for proper offset. I then tacked
in tubes to the 4 corners and had temporary braces on the nose gear socket.
Then I removed the engine so I could tack in the rest of the tubes. The
mistake I made was thinking it would be easier to put the 2 tubes in my way instead
of Jim's way. The second mistake was not testing the engine fit before hard
welding the whole thing. 20/20 hindsight is incredible.

Jim, A quick note to say Happy Birthday!!! Thanks so
much for all the great advice you share with us all. I
removed the old heat boxes from N320WT and installed
the new boxes you and Weaver provided pictures of. I
flew in 28 deg weather last weekend and had a very
warm comfortable cockpit. Man these boxes really
work!!!Its as warm as my car!!! Thanks again and Happy
New Year.

A lot has been written lately on the subject of stabilizer setting. For what
it's worth I'll tell you how I set it on N6PJ.
Load the aircraft the way you will fly it most of the time and fly it at
cruise without any trim. If it doesn't fly level then change the setting. I
found that under these conditions if a little power is added, the nose will
rise slightly. If power is reduced slightly, the nose will drop slightly.
Worked for me.
