Stock master cylinder(s), new brakes are amazing. Very effective, requires a much different approach to stopping. Instead of firm application if needed, now it’s just brush the brakes as needed. Definitely remedied the issue of leaking wheel cylinders of course. Highly recommend, and a perfect pairing to larger wheels if that’s ever a thought.

It’s an interesting idea, albeit no legal path exists for such a mod. One concern that arose when discussing the thicker fluid previously was rigidity. One could argue that the higher viscosity would not damper better but have the unintended consequence of dampening worse due to a less compliant fluid.

Try wiggling the scissors with your hand…. If it wiggles, consider the McFarlane Torque Link Kit…. New bushings, bolts, shims, etc. had the same problem and the kit fixed it once and for all. It is a common problem but agree that isn’t how it was designed to operate…. Might even risk firewall damage if it goes on long enough or it’s bad enough…Good luck….
@112_adventures
@112_adventures 8 күн бұрын
It’s a good suggestion. What’s odd is that the torque links had some play in them before the larger wheel was installed and had very little shimmy, if at all. During the landing gear overhaul/upgrade, all the bushings, links, hardware etc., were replaced and the play was eliminated. Once the bigger wheel went on it had shimmy so bad it could rival a clapped out flight school 172!

Yep, all the bushings and hardware have been replaced. What threw me a curve was that there was play in the links before the big wheel install and the shimmy was minimal at its worst. Once the larger tire went it, it was so bad you’d think it was a flight school airplane, even after all the play had been shimmed out!

Try letting a little air out of the tire. My R182 is much less susceptible to shimmy w a few less psi in the tire. 3 to 5 psi less. But, my tire is much smaller and the pressure probably much higher than your big tire.

grounding vs. bonding ..... these are separate issues. When fueling is taking place then bonding is required. The exhaust outlet is not a good place to 'bond' . The POH will tell the correct place to bond. The build up of static electricity during a fuelling operation is a very real threat that is not understood by so many in the GA community.

Using a continuity meter to test the quality of a low resistance ground path is like trying to measure bearing clearances with a plastic ruler. Besides, we don't need a low resistance path to dissipate a static charge. The only thing we care about is having the fuel nozzle and the filler opening on the tank at the same potential when they first meet. If the path we choose has a higher resistance then it simply takes a few microseconds longer to dissipate the charge. I used to dissipate static charges into doorknobs with my finger, which is a terrible conductor.

I worked at a top 10 midwest fbo for almost 30 years, Gotta say there were a lot of times i didnt ground due to no lugs in the ramp, that was also fueling big avgas loads like DC6s too. Airport said every time they bored a hole it weakened the ramp.... at any rate, I was thinking that fire aint gonna do it a hellava lotta good either lol... All it takes is that one time. As far as bonding the truck and plane. I always looked for a spot that was rather scuffed up or scratched like where the tow bar hooks as you said, never used the exhaust and when training advised new guys against that. I think the exhaust is titanium and has a tendency to become brittle with age as it hardens.. might be wrong. Great video

Usually there would be a ground but the exhaust flange has a gasket separating the manifold. There are nuts and star lock washers (one time use) on the metal flange side that are torqued onto the studs. There should be electrical connection to ground. Probably just enough resistance so it doesn’t show a short.

I've had this argument with several ground handlers / fuelers - the exhaust isn't a great place to ground. They still insist on using it. At the same time, 100s upon 100s of refuels with a ground handler grounding via the exhaust... and to this point my plane hasn't exploded once.

This is a great idea. I have a CGR30 in my C182M and intermittent sensors are a chronic problem. I liked the concept of the older EI OLCs but they have had their issues. Each annual and some oil changes I double check them. I'm going to check and see if a DB style standard density pin will fit in the one I have, otherwise, I'll seriously consider replacing all of them. By the way, I looked at how you designed your panel on the other video. I did something very similar using the Cessna Parts Manual drawing as a basis for determining the fit. The drawings in the parts manual are actually to scale once you correct the aspect ratio which I did by direct measurement. The CAD system I used was FreeCAD which I liked better than the EAA's Solidworks offering. It produced .STL files which drove the laser cutter to directly cut 0.090 6061-T6 AL used to support the Dynon Skyview HDX system now in the airplane. I'm also going to go with your dual shunt system to monitor battery and alternator flow since I have two shunts in on the bench right now. That is a great idea. Your means of setting up a secondary breaker panel is just what I've been looking for, too. I took out 27# of wire with my install, and there's more cleanup to do. I haven't touched the main switch panel, but I like the breakers you used and the switches are intriguing. Very nice Job.
@112_adventures
@112_adventures 16 күн бұрын
Thanks for the great comment. Luckily I've never had much of any issues with the EI connectors but I have broken a few strands by over torquing the set screws. This new system is amazing and while a direct solder connection is ideal, I like how this allows for quickly removing the item/connection if need be. For as many of them as I have installed, I've had zero issues but wanted to try the ferrules out, so I did it on my fuel flow sensor first as it was easiest to access. Thanks for watching the other videos too!

The Cessna service manual mentions 2 options for disassembly of the strut; on or off the airplane. The procedure they describe is the way I did it this time. For reassembly they just say installation is the reverse of removal. There is no mention if the parts needed, that’s all found in the illustrated parts catalog but most of the O-ring part numbers have been superseded from AN numbers to MS numbers.
