LEXL - Station 5
« on: August 27, 2024, 01:45:02 PM »
The kit that I took over has some 7/8" tubing that I figured was for station 5.  However it measures ~ .060 instead of the plans .035".  Is this a change some folks are making?

Made my tailpost out of 7/8"x0.058". 3/4" V.stab slides right in. 0.060" might work.

:grin: was that meant to be 'surely' ?  Reminicent of the movie Airplane.
.058 / .062 wow those are so close.  I'm glad you pointed that out as I believe I have them both but was thinking I measred wrong.  I'll be sure to use the .058.
