lancair ailiron problems
wildhair,
Sorry to hear about you losing your Lancair due to an aileron problem. I must tell you I have over twenty flights on mine already and I haven't had any problems at all with the ailerons. I glued them on with 6 min. epoxy per the instructions, I did not use tape of any kind, I just applied the epoxy to the servo body and glued them permanently to the wood. I did make sure that I had a nice epoxy fillet all around the servo. I recently checked them to see how they're holding up, and again after 20+ flights and plenty of aerobatic stress they're in there solid! The only problem I've had with my Lancair is the stock nose gear wire which was flexing too much in the grass. I have since installed a functional oleo strut and my problems are over. Once again sorry about your mishap, the Lancair is a great flying airplane and I'm sure you would have enjoyed it!
