Neckbrace reshaping for more clearance from mass balance weight cables complete.

Mass balance centering cables too close to neckbrace for comfort.

Especially close on starboard side.

When we were fixing fuse being racked, we cut neckbrace to fit new style mass balance arm without centering cables. After installation it was decided to install cables, so guess it's bout time to get more clearance (before top fuse bond on).

Cut edges off of neckbrace, floxed corners and 3 BID to make gap wider to allow more clearance for mass balance centering cables when deflecting full down.

T-Bar guide, 1/8" balsa and 2 BID, after checking range of motion, well you see, used some PVC foam, (left over from rear bulkhead), that was close at hand.]]> rparigoris photo Mon, 27 Sep 2010 19:37:08 +0000 http://www.europaowners.org/gallery2/v/Begin-06-2003/Stabilator+A+thru+Z/album225/IM003500.jpg.html http://www.europaowners.org/gallery2/v/Begin-06-2003/Stabilator+A+thru+Z/album225/IM003500.jpg.html
Didn't like the idea too much of a Jubilee clamp holding weights forward, or trying to proper space. Stainless collar clamp with drilled for safety wire stainless cap screws and rubber large area washers just the ticket for anal builder. Thanks.

G-10 guides make nice fit.]]> rparigoris photo Tue, 17 Nov 2009 23:27:36 +0000 http://www.europaowners.org/gallery2/v/Begin-06-2003/Stabilator+A+thru+Z/album225/IM002181.jpg.html http://www.europaowners.org/gallery2/v/Begin-06-2003/Stabilator+A+thru+Z/album225/IM002181.jpg.html
McMaster clamps help hold things so can crimp Nico in place. Teflon McMaster shrink tube with adhesive works well for cable ends.]]> rparigoris photo Tue, 17 Nov 2009 23:27:36 +0000 http://www.europaowners.org/gallery2/v/Begin-06-2003/Stabilator+A+thru+Z/album225/IM002180.jpg.html http://www.europaowners.org/gallery2/v/Begin-06-2003/Stabilator+A+thru+Z/album225/IM002180.jpg.html
Notice large castle nut, supplied is too small IMHO and fights threaded rod! Thus positive G's are fully loading the thin supplied nut.]]> rparigoris photo Mon, 27 Sep 2010 19:37:08 +0000
