[rebel-builders] Stabilizer/Elevator hing bushings for Moose

[Ted Waltman]

Possible the pictures were lost in a server crash that happened some years
ago? I think Wayne's son recovered most of the lost pictures, but maybe a
few slipped thru the recovery process.

Hi Wayne,

I went through all of the Moose elevator and rudder sections. Is that where
they'd be?

I put bronze hat bushings in the rudder and elevator hinges on the Moose I
have. As for size.... something I had on the shelf.

Think I may have uploaded pictures, 5 years or so back, of same..

I didn't use bushings but I know several builders who are now taking the
elevator off to create a bushing-attach approach. Folks are seeing wear
in
the elevator attach points (though I don't have any yet in 101+ hours,

and

didn't see any after 240+ hours in my previous Moose either).

I don't know of anyone that I can think of off-hand that is putting
bushings
in the rudder attach points. I did see an interesting rudder attach
design
in a Harmon Rocket last weekend. That design used Heim (Aurora) rod-end
bearings as part of the rudder assembly. I have pictures if anyone

wants

to
see them.

Hi Guys,

I'm at the point where I want to install bushings in the
elevator/stabilizer
hinges before I close up the elevator. I think I also want to do this

for

the rudder.

How have you guys done this? What size ( OD and thickness) bushing have
you
used and how are they arranged?

I searched the archives but didn't get a hit.

Thanks,
Fred
