Does anyone know if there is an approved procedure for the replacement of aileron hinges on a Vari-eze? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have one hinge that is beginning to get a little sloppy and need to begin planning a fix. :(

you may be a perfect canadate for a teflon hinge insert and rod, Rod. ;)

I don't know the website off hand, but look for links on this and canard community for "teflon"

 

My understanding is that you remove the pin, insert the teflon and insert a new supplied pin. That might solve your problem in an easy elegant fassion

 

Saving a lot of work hinges on hour finding that link :o

I Canardly contain myself!

Rich :D

Hi Rodney,

 

You have two options:

1. Visit Gary Hall's site to purchase the aileron hinge retrofit kit, or

2. If you are a CSA member, contact Terry Schubert for his retrofit kit free :)

 

Here is Gary Hall's URL http://www.uslan.com/hinge-kit.html

Terry Schubert can be reached at: jschuber@juno.com
