Stab/elevator reinforcement REBEL

Post by Wayne G. O'Shea » Sat Feb 18, 2012 9:23 am

Jesse, it was the end rib on the elevator that you should reinforce. On an
original build I suggest a small piece of angle with a couple rivets into
the end ribs flat face and on the other side of the angle a single RV1613
into the spar tube. This will keep the rib from rotating on the single rivet
that holds it to the spar if built according to the manual. A couple of ,025
doublers in a quarter moon shape picking up 3 rivets in each direction don't
hurt either! The balancer tip's up and down motions twist this end rib until
it forms cracks/buckles or breaks off the attachment tab to the spar. Easier
to tackle now...than after paint and a couple years down the road when you
have forgot where your tools and cleco's went!

Cheers,
Wayne

I thought so too at first. After a while, it gets intuitive. If one
were
to only read posts that pertain to his specific type, that person would
miss
out on a lot.

It would help if everybody made it clear - Moose/Super Rebel or Rebel

Look nicer on the inside and the transition will be un-noticable on the skin
if you make sure the doubler edge only extends a short distance past the 3rd
rivet to give the balance of the rivet spacing before the 4th rivet pulls
the skin tight.

Cheers,
Wayne
