The Murphy Builders Site

hello All
since it is kind of complaicated to find Hoerner tips for the Elite we will
just go ahead and have them made rigt here in Quebec by one of the leader in
Carbon fiber fabrication, that is if there is enough interest. i figure the
price will be around 2,500$ can. The weight would be less than 4 pounds
each. lots of weigiht saving..... if you guys are interested and i will
start doing my homework and let you know of the exact price
sincerely

Mike, I don't remember any plywood detail for 611E. Be careful to trial fit your tps to the end ribs. Our (std) tips were so poor that I had to make a rib to fit the right tip. Our tip strobe power packs are mounted on the end of the main spar and we made the tips screw removable for access. I wouldn't do that again! Rather drill the rivets and retouch the paint if required. Be sure you mount the tips symmetrically so that the tip chord lines are parallel.

Mike,
The tips are riveted through the skin and the rib. The rib / skin existing rivets should be flush so the tip lays flat on the skin. Suggest drilling the holes in the skin / rib to #40 and then using a hole finder to drill the tips, clecoing, and the drilling up to #30. After that the tip trim line is easy.
