[rebel-builders] Question of Rebel Datum location/ Cof G range
Posted: Sun Feb 19, 2012 8:35 pm
as an adendum to that.. with Spring Gear.. bolt flange for axle may be
slightly forward of the door post centerline due to the taper cut of the
leaf. I have a set in the shop I'm gonna verify that on tomorrow. Even if it
is I can't see it being forward of the leading edge of the wing.
I know for fact that Gary has the bungee style gear though.. and it is
definitely centered on the door post.

That's interesting Ron.. considering the cabin bottom below the door sill
is
to be level for weighing.. and the door post is perpendicular to the cabin
bottom.. and the axle should be on the center line of the door post.. and
the door post is behind (aft of) the wings leading edge.

On 254R, with spring gear and 8.00x6.00 Carlisle turf tires, the center
of
the axle was 0.5" forward of a plumb bob dropped from the leading edge.

AFT of the wing leading edge.
