    I think you have to be a paying member.

    I definitely get more from here than I get from my AOPA magazine subscription -er, I mean membership. It's just harder to read while in my porcelain library.

    I hope this is the right thread. I am a past member of SWPC. Lost my medical, sold my Tri-Pacer. I have started back into radio control models. I am currently drawing plans for a 1/7 scale Tri-Pacer. I want to use scale operating ailerons and flaps. I have lots of photos of my past two Tri-Pacers, scale three vews, and parts manual. What I really need is a cross section of the aileron / trailing edge showing the scale aileron
    shape and the geometry of the hinge pin pivot.

    How many times have you preflighted the hinge pins and not given a thought about how this assembly really works??

    Would appreciate any help

    Mr. Bradley- it appears we're "backwards" to each other... after building & flying RC and FF models for years (and flying planes belonging to anyone foolish enough to let me into them), I finally bought a full-scale plane. (Just think of all the money I'll save not having to buy transmitters, receivers & servos!!-- Yeah, right....)

    I'm going down to the hangar today to work on it for a bit; I'll see if I can get some pics of the aileron & hinge parts for you. Any specific view angle you need? Walt

    How about a 33% Tri Pacer. Have a scale Colt with a .46 in it

    Well, that RC looks like it's as fast as my PA-22! I only hope I'll be able to land as well as the model did when I get to that point. (But not the touch & go- that looked a bit harsh....)

    Mr. Bradley-as promised, some close-ups of the aileron & flap hinges, etc.
