Aileron travel
Posted: Fri Feb 17, 2012 9:17 pm
<!doctype html public "-//w3c//dtd html 4.0 transitional//en"> Grant or Brian,
For a standard rebel with a lycoming O-320.
Are the control travel distances given in the manual? I could not find them for final set up.
1. I need to know what the required aileron deflection is while the flaperons are set to nuetral i.e. 7/8" down on the mixer arm. See figure 64 in the control installation instructions.
The up and down deflections should be given in degrees using the aileron template as shown in figure 74 of the wing assembly manual.
2. I also need to know what the required deflections are while the mixer arm is set to the maximum flap down setting and in the reflex position.
3. What is the design deflection of the elevators, up and down in degrees?
4. What is the design deflection of the rudder left and right?
Please be very specific as these are critical to 1st flight safety and success and they should be provided by MAC. The numbers should come from the design of the aircraft.
I would like to get the aileron numbers as soon as possible because I am now held up due to the aileron deflection question.
Thank you,
Rick DeCiero
