| Subject: | Outboard elevator hinge plate - 801 |
Howdy all,
I've been reading Gary Liming's web site and noticed he made a modification to
the elevator hinge plate. He used 0.090" 6061-T6 to make his own outboard elevator
hinge plate instead of using the 0.032" plate supplied by Zenith. Just
checked my kit and my hinge plate is 0.063". I guess Zenith beefed up that part
when the horizontal stabilizer was widened.
http://www.liming.org/ch801/final.html
(hinge plate is about 1/2 down the page)
His hinge plate was extended to allow for two vertical rows of rivets. My Zenith
part provides one row of rivets with 8 mm edge distance (predrilled).
I'd like to know if any other CH801 builders have felt the need to substitute thicker
material for this component. If so, what thickness did you use? Also,
the plans do not call for any type of bushing inside the 3/16" hole for the hinge
pin - Gary used used a nylon bushing. Can someone help me out understanding
the potential "cons" of using a bushing at that location?
Regards,
- Ben (working on the horizontal stabilizer...)

Could any one take a look at their factory kit and clarify exactly what Zenith
is supplying in the factory kits.

Looking at Gary's description, I think he used a nylon WASHER on the hinge pin
between the hinge plate and the elevator. I don't believe it was a nylon BUSHING
around the hinge pin itself and between the pin and plate.
Just my un-educated opinion here, but if I were to put a bushing here, it would
probably of the bronze variety, not the nylon type.

Good eye. I re-read the page I referenced and it does seem a nylon washer was
used and not a bushing.
Thanks for pointing that out.
