Default Help w/BVM Mig 15

Could someone tell me the size of the air cylinders used for the speed brakes, nose gear doors, and the inner main door?

I'm completely re-plumbing and updating older items in my Mig when I return and wanted to get everything ordered now so it will be there whenever I do get home and I don't have to wait. I'm sure I'll have plenty to do and don't want to waste time waiting for parts

TIA
George

George,
I built one a few years ago, but eventually sold it. I let the drawings and instruction manual go with the airplane, so I don't have any reference material.
Why not call BVM tomorrow morning, and ask David or Tom to snoop it out for you? They have all of the reference material available, and you could place your order at that time.
I think that they are the 1 5/16" stroke cylinders, but please have David or Tom verify it.

Call BVM at 407-327-6333

Maybe Dave Ribbbe could chime in and fill you in. He lurks around here from time to time. After all, the BVM MiG is a Ribbe design.

If memory serves correct....

You will need 4 of the short cylinders for LG doors (1 Ea. side mains and 1 Ea. side nose).
#5751 1" stroke (5/16" diameter)

and 2 of the medium for Air Brakes.
#5752 1-5/16" stroke

You can find them in accesories on bvmjets.com

Regards,
David
