    --> Yak-List message posted by: SargentWayne@aol.com I'm just a lurker on this site but, I saw something really scary at an acro camp. A guy was practicing an advanced sequence with several outside pushes followed by a strong pull and he got the "wobblies" (everything spinning, could only see straight ahead, very disoriented, lucky to be able to land) then had to be helped from the plane. BUILD UP YOUR TOLERANCE FOR NEGATIVE "G"s, DON'T DO A HARD PULL AFTER LOTS OF NEGATIVE. I heard the Russians lost alot of acro pilots to the "wobblies" until they modified their training. The IAC magazine had some real good articles about this a few months ago. Be careful "outside" Wayne Sargent

    Subject: Standard YAK 52 Fuel Indicator
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "A. Dennis Savarese" <adsavar@gte.net> Anyone have a standard YAK 52 Fuel indicator (the one with all the vertical lights and shows 60 liters per side) they would consider selling or possibly letting me borrow for a short period until mine is repaired? If so, please contact me off-list at adsavar@gte.net or 334-285-2141. Thanks very much. Dennis Savarese

    Subject: Trim
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "Frank Haertlein" <yak52driver@earthlink.net> Yaksters; Just about to install aileron trim in my 52. I'm thinking of using a spring system connected up to the aileron push rods. To save the trouble of having to fly with a force gauge to measure stick forces, I'm wondering if any have been able to quantify the spring force required to trim the typical 52. This would help in selecting the required spring force without a lot of experimentation. Maybe there's a better way to approach this? I'll be using a Ray Allen MAC servo with the long travel. Any suggestions? All inputs are welcome :) Frank YAK-52 N9110M

    Subject: Re: Trim
    --> Yak-List message posted by: "A. Dennis Savarese" <adsavar@gte.net> Why not install the TruTrak, http://www.trutrakflightsystems.com/, wing leveler auto pilot? The push rod model. It's a piece of cake. Put the control head where the original Russian clock is in the front instrument panel. Fits a 3 1/8 inch hole. Connect the servo push rod directly to where the original aileron return spring was mounted to the aileron control tube just under the front seat. Mount the servo to the frame just above where the opposite end of the original aileron return spring was mounted. Bingo, all the aileron trim you'll ever need and inexpensive.

    --> Yak-List message posted by: "Bob Fitzpatrick" <rmfitz@direcway.com> After a 6 mos medical hiatus i could be a spokesman for building tolerances. The +Gs are as expected, the -Gs are spookier. The greatest problem i have found is not with building physical tolerance but with mental discipline. To adjust to negatives i started with slow rolls, then point rolls and finally sustained inverted holding heading and altitude and adding a few S turns. Then the engine sputtered and lost power. I would have bet any of you real money that i had the experience and discipline to push out with aileron and top rudder to get right side up but instead i sucked the stick into my belly and did a split -s before i knew what was happening. Within a split second i realized the mistake and rolled out 90 degrees off heading and climbed back to altitude. The engine came back to life and has run perfectly since. Had i been low this could have been messy. Practice, people, and do it at altitude. bob ----- Original Message ----- From: <SargentWayne@aol.com> Subject: Yak-List: Re: Yak-List Digest: 7 Msgs - 05/27/03 > --> Yak-List message posted by: SargentWayne@aol.com > > I'm just a lurker on this site but, I saw something really scary at an acro camp.
