How good are the positions given for the aileron cable fairleads on 6B22 (02/05)?
The position of the forward fairlead seems a little vague and I find the drawing
confusing. Does anyone have a copy of the portion of drawing 6B11 (01/08)
showing the locations of holes for cables, wires, etc., in the side skin? Any
info or pix will help.
Thanks!
Tim

Tim,
I was confused too. The hole for the balance cable is right up against the
seat back 6B5-1 (7mm away & 120mm from the floor), so there is a plain pie
ce of nylon riveted to 6B5-1 to keep the cable from rubbing on the seat bac
k. The hole for the aft cable is 110mm directly above the Z 6B1-7. Hope t
his helps.
Jay

I'm still confused. The nylon piece(s) riveted to the back of the seat panel...
is there one on each side, butting up against the side skin or?

I guess you could say that there are two pieces to the balance cable fairle
ad and the two pieces are at right angles to one another. One is for the s
ide skin hole that is riveted to the side skin and the other one riveted to
the aft side of the seat back just to protect it from possible rubbing by
the cable. That one is at right angles to and does butt up against the sid
e skin.

Tim,
Put another way: There is a fairlead riveted to the side skin to guide the
cable through the side skin. This fairlead puts the cable very close to t
he back side of the seat back. To make sure that the cable does not rub ag
ainst the seat back, they put a piece of nylon on the back side of the seat
back to keep that from happening.

I understand, thanks. The next question is "How accurate is Zenith's placement
of the holes? Do the cables run straight and true or are they being deformed
a bit by the fairleads?

As I recall, both cables are deflected very slightly at the fairleads, whi
ch is the only reason for the fairleads, anyway. I think the placement rea
lly has to do with avoiding interferences within the fuselage, not making t
he cables straight from point to point. I could easily be wrong about that
since some builders have used pushrods instead of cables and those would h
ave to be straight, point to point.

Anybody ever do any flight testing to see if wheel pants give the XL / 650 any
more cruise speed?
