Subject: | Re: Yak-List Digest: 4 Msgs - 05/26/08 |
Good morning,
Is it possible to balance the main gear tires on a Yak-52? I have flat spots developing
and I think it is due to the tire always landing on the same spot

Subject: Yak-List: wheel bearing part numbers
Getting ready for the big chin-dig at OSH I ordered new tires which just
showed up. I also want to paint my wheel rims and put in new bearings. I
really need new outer races.
Does anyone out there have the numbers for all the main gear outer races and
bearings?
This is for a CJ-6A. Not a Yak.
I'd like to have all that stuff on hand when I get back at the end of June.

John,
Now that's a good one ----- "landing on the same spot". :-) Actually it
most likely is due to braking. On the 52 at high taxi speeds, like when you
apply brakes right after touching down and during rollout, it is easy to
skid the tires which in turn causes flat spots. If you squeeze the brake
handle at the same pressure as you squeeze it while taxiing, the brakes will
grab pretty quickly and skid the tires or one of the tires depending on the
position of the rudder pedals.
Don't take my word for it though. Next time you're taxing and squeeze the
brake handle, make a mental note of how hard you're squeezing the brake
handle. Then when you land, right after all three wheels are on the ground,
squeeze the brake handle with approximately the same pressure you used
during taxiing. See if you don't get a tire "chirp" or two.
As for balancing, that's a somewhat difficult task John. The difficulty is
in keeping the weights on the rim. I've actually used automobile wheel
weights. Took the tire to my local and friendly tire store and asked them
if they would spin the tire up to see where and how much weight was needed.
The automobile wheel weights have stayed on the rim. Stick on weights
should not be used because if they spin off they become projectiles which
can damage the sheet metal on the underside of the wing if it comes off at
the right time.

You apparently get rubber weights (used on trucks) that can be stuck to the
inside of the tyre.
This is how I did the wheels on my jet - don't want bits of stick on weights
flying into engine!
So you put wheel on machine, check where weights should go, take it all
apart (presumably marking things), add weights and re-assemble.
I did not do it myself but had it explained to me.

Subject: | How to balance your tire on the plane. |
I balance my tires on the plane and it works great. Here is how I do it.
Obviously it is easiest to do with a new tire and tube and at the annual
condition inspection.
1) Go to the truck tire store and get some large tire patches. Get the
patches that are about 3"x5". Also get a can of cement. The tire patch that
size weighs about 4 oz. You can also see if you can find rubber tire weights
called balance pads made by the patch rubber company
http://www.patchrubber.com/tire_repair/14601.html I found them, but did not
want to buy a case of them.
2) Take off the wheel and clean and dry the bearings.
3) Reassemble the wheel onto the plane without the metal parts that rub on
the felt seals. Tighten the axle nut just slightly. Since the bearings have
no grease in them at this point, and no felt seals are rubbing, the wheel
will easily turn until the heavy side is down. In my experience the valve
stem is always the heavy side.
4) Take the rubber patch or balance pad and tape it to the top of the wheel.
Spin the wheel gently and see if it stops randomly. You can trim the pad
with scissors and I found I could balance the tire on the plane to 1/4 oz
accuracy.
5) Once you have the tire balanced with the pad taped on, take a marker and
mark where the pad is on the tire and make an indicating mark on the tire
and on the rim so that you can get it all lined up later.
6) Take the wheel off the rim and remove the tube.
7) Scuff the rubber on the inside of the tire where the patch is going to
go.
8) Apply the cement to the scuffed part of the tire and let dry.
9) Fold the patch and press it into place on the glue trying to not trap any
air
10) Powder the inside of the tire and tube (I'd use a new tube as they
stretch)with tire talc and reassemble making sure you line up the tire on
the rim with the marks you made before.
11) Inflate the tire to full pressure, deflate the tire completely to
unwrinkled the tube and re-inflate to normal pressure.
12) Grease bearings and reassemble wheel to airplane with all parts in the
proper location.
Good Luck,
Squatch

Subject: | FAST Clinic - June 20-22 - North Carolina |
All:
Just a friendly reminder of the upcoming FAST clinic at TTA (southwest of Raleigh)
coming up June 20-22. So far, five newbies signed up!! We could use a couple
more IPs and Leads to attend due to the number of newbies registered. This
will be their first formation event, so let's make it the best it can be.
Head to www.flyredstar.org and sign up for the "Tar Heel FAST Clinic." For planning purposes, I'd appreciate it if those attending would register by 14 June.
Regards,
Craig

Because of time constraints at OSH there will be little or most likely no
time to practice the formation "50" once we arrive at OSH. Therefore those
planning to fly in the show but not show up to West Bend for practice (right now
there are only 12 signed up and we need 31) you need to practice prior to
OSH.
A "line abreast" position is needed for both numbers. Line abreast is not
hard to fly - just different from what we've always done. You simply line
your wing's spar line, and line it up with your leads. The distance between
aircraft is one wing span.
You judge this distance by using the leading edge and trailing edge of your
wing tip. At the proper distance and line up - the leading edge of your wing
tip will line up with the very forward base of the windshield. The trailing
edge of the wing tip will line up at the juncture of the vertical
stabilizer's leading edge and the fuselage.
You can see pictures of those points on page 15 of the Winter issue of the
Red Alert.
There are quite a number of RPA clinics all fired up around the country
prior to OSH. This is a good time to practice line abreast, or just take of
couple of flight with your local fellow RPA people and practice it.
Things are coming to fruition for the OSH blast. But we need to look good
out there and a little practice is all it takes.
