Super Rebel aileron torque tube (in roof) dimensions
Posted: Sun Feb 19, 2012 8:06 pm
Greeting guys,
This is involved, so I will try to give details below.
I'll start with my question: Is the measurement between the CC-140 pivot assemblies supposed to be the same as the measurement between the push-pull tube holes on the flap horn (bellcrank)? See figure 25, Chapter 12 controls of SR manual dated 29/11/02. The two push-pull tubes appear to be parallel to each other in figure 25.
If I measure the distance between the holes that bolt the push-pull tubes onto the flap horn (bellcrank) they are 6 inches apart, or 3 inches either side of the fuselage centerline. Now, figures 22 ans 23 in the same chapter show the center of the CC-140 pivot assembly as 1&9/16 inside of the flange of the FUS-65 (see figure 21). THIS WOULD MAKE the distance between the two push-pull tubes here as 4&7/8.
I am thinking that the dimension in Fig 22 & 23 should be 1 inch!?
Also, can someone please confirm that in figure 21 the two FUS-65s should be 8 inches apart, or 4 inches either side of the aircraft centerline.
Am I missing something here? Like a manual update!
Thanks in advance, -Jason
