Re: Eccentric reflexor binding

Richard there should be no binding or tightness in the mechanism. I have a phenolic donut and aluminum center piece. It moves freely. I use a 3m lubricant when servicing. Jim Patillo N46JP Q200

Eccentric reflexor binding

Hi Guys, Has anyone had trouble with the eccentric reflex donut binding in the outer ring ? The phenolic is in good condition, but perhaps the tolerance is too tight. What sort of clearance should

Re: Rough fitting my cockpit doors and hardware....

I would say that would be my exit plan...permanently. I am working hard for that not to be the case any more than it was for the original Q2 N81QA when it first flew..but I guess anything can happen.

Re: Rough fitting my cockpit doors and hardware....

The problem with yaw issues etc is that the evidence is all anecdotal, as we say in medicine. Nobody has carefully determined that something else on the aircraft isn't screwed up. Press on. It's all

Numbers question TAS

We can measure our TAS at some Altitude, say 3000' and temperature say 63F, by flying in three different directions (say 0, 120, 240 degrees) and averaging the GPS reading. This would be our True

Re: Rough fitting my cockpit doors and hardware....
