Anyone have any good pics of how they installed theirs? Also how did you do your root ribs?
thanks, Tom

Here are few on my 2 meter Aries

I use flat head 4-40 machine bolts and recess them for a flat fit on the side of the fuse. Make sure to use locktite to secure the nuts. I have had a few vibrate off before.

I use a 1/4 balsa root rib with 1/8 lt ply to reinforce the area at the adjuster tubes. Some guys use 1/8 lt ply for the complete rib and then make lightening holes.

Hello working on a kit over here, was wondering if someone would be kind enough to post more information on installing the wing and stab adjusters, would like to see more pictures and information in the gator type install, any information other then what has been posted would be greaty apprieciated.

Thanks

PICS phweeese....

Just happen to be doing some root ribs this morning...

These are 1/8 ply. The adjuster socket will go in the rear hole, a 1/4-20 nylon bolt will go in the front. (nylon nut glued to the backside of the rib)

Scott thanks for the prompt update, you mentioned that the adjuster will be installed in the back side, I was looking over some arf that came with their own wing adjusters pattern type arf. like world models Groovy, I noticed on the groovy the adjuster is installed in the front and back end, going over the details that came with the gator wing adjusters there is a mention of having the install in the leading and trailing edge of the wing, any particular reason as to why you opted to go with a trainling edge installl.

My specific application will be a for a Biplane, is there a specific need to having 2 wing adjusters per wing rin trailing and leading edge ?

If you have any other pics of completed installs that would also help.

Thanks.

Laurent merci pour les photos est ce que vouz en avais d'autre si'il vous plait ? merci

When using a bolt to secure the wing half, it can replace either adjuster. I just happen to have more open space in the fuse up front to install the nuts. If you use any other method of securing the wing, you'll probably need two adjusters per wing.
