Jun 16, 2020     Rudder installation - (8 hours) Category: Controls
Cut and formed hardpoint for rudder hinge arms. Installed hinge arm and hardpoint to the bottom of both rudders with Cabo. Test fitted rear bench and decided to wait until after the vanity firewall is installed before finalizing location of bench.
 
Jun 15, 2020     Rudder installation - (6 hours)       Category: Controls
Installed spring mechanism and latch in both winglets and rudders. Added one more layup of BID to the insides of the fresh air vents.


 
Jan 24, 2020     Wing Area for Ailerons - (2 hours) Category: Controls
Sanded aileron areas of the wings and wingtips.
 
Jan 23, 2020     Wing Space for Ailerons - (8 hours)       Category: Controls
Prepared and glassed both internal wing areas for the ailerons. Slurried wing tip repair areas.


 
Jan 22, 2020     Repaired Wing Space for Ailerons - (7 hours)       Category: Controls
Cut the fiberglass out of the internal cavity of the pilot side wing at the aileron. Cut out the foam to make room for the full motion of the aileron. Applied slurry in prep for glassing tomorrow. Sanded opposite side of the wings and filled where needed and filled the upward side of the top of the pilot side wing where it was repaired. Finally, installed tubing (Cabo) to the inside of the cabin to channel the rudder wires. I will glass them tomorrow.


 
Jan 21, 2020     Changed Gap in Wings for Aileron Movement - (7 hours) Category: Controls
Installed two hard points to the sump tank and glassed; evaluated the degree of movement in the ailerons and realized the factory manufactured the wings with insufficient space in the inside structure where the ailerons go. I had to cut out glass and foam, then prepare the space for re-glassing. Put micro slurry on them foam. Hopefully will be able to glass the co-pilot wing tomorrow. Temperature in Sebastian is cold (40's tonight). I will cut out the pilot wing area also tomorrow.
 
Jan 15, 2020     Rudder Pedals - (6 hours)       Category: Controls
Completed assembly and installed ruder pedals. Beautiful evening in Sebastian.
