KR> Gap between counterweight

2014-03-26 Thread Dene
I have never scrutinized the plans that closely to notice where on the arm the weights are supposed to be attached but years ago when I used to fly with a friend in his KR2 ZS-WEC, his weights were in fact airfoil shaped like mini wings and acted almost like spades in aerobatic planes it

N56ML's ailerons are balanced across the entire nose, by filling a 4130 tube with lead, then hogging out the nose foam with a dull spade bit, slathering it up with epoxy and micro, and then encapsulating it in place with carbon fiber on the ends. I guess I did that in such a hurry (it was way

The gap around the aileron counter weight on my KR-2 is 1/4-inch at the closest point where the weight comes through the wing skin. The arm goes through the middle of the trailing aux spar; closest clearance on the arm is 1/8-inch. The counter weights are flatter and wider than the plans to

That should be more than adequate. ?I haven't looked at mine in a number of years, but doubt that I have that much clearance. ?Just satisfy yourself that the counterweight can not touch or bind under any circumstances. BTW, your construction work looks really nice. ?Love the work on your wing
