Apr 28, 2017     Hardware Spreadsheet - (6 hours) Category: Research
Brief Description: Hardware Spreadsheet
Developed a Google Worksheet for Xenos-B hardware. Sheets updated as missed hardware is found,
Started the pricing based on Wick's website, but ultimately found Aircraft Spruce's site easier to find and order from. Used Interstate Plastics cut-to-order for Delrin(Acetal) rudder pivot blocks and Phenolic fairlead holder blocks. Aircraft Spruce did not show a 3/4" long, 1/4" dia fairlead as called for in the plans, so a 1" x 1/4" diameter was substituted. Looks like the plan sheet is in error. Needed to reorder thicker Phenolic blocks for the fairleads in the tail.

Ultimately, the parts worksheet reflected the errors in bolt lengths from the plans. Sent a note to Sonex detailing plan errors, but never saw that the errors where addressed in plan updates.
