Posted: Mon Aug 13, 2007 2:45 pm Post subject: Trio A/P Servo Mounting

I know I have asked this before and I put it off to work on other things…  

There are some builders that have mounted their Trio Servo’s on the wing rib adjacent to the aileron belcrank, but those installations involved reinforcing the rib, etc. and I am not sure that is necessary or what I want to do.  

Has anyone mounted the servo on the web of the wing spar in the bay next to the aileron belcrank?  I can’t imagine that the four holes for some #6 screws and the eight #40 holes for the nutplates would weaken the structure any.  

Thoughts anyone?

I placed the servo on the web of the rib as you have described but I did put 

the servo on a .032 Al plate and used nut plates on the O/B side of the rib 

to screw it to. Like you I thought the web would be suffiecient ....but my 

motto throughout this project if I ever say "I THINK thids or that Might be 

OK" then I would always cal  Van"s, Check my favorite builder web sites, ask 

the question as you have and ( time out of ten kicked it up a notch for 

safety.

Contact John Morgensen at john(at)morgensen.com (john(at)morgensen.com)  he took  some pictures just before we closed his wing.  His Trio is on the spar next to the tip, simple and neat + easily  removable.---

I have seen people mount other things on their wing spar web such as

terminal blocks, Adel clamps, etc. but I just want to be certain that I am

not going to compromise the spar strength by drilling four #6 holes and the

eight #40 holes for the nutplates.
