<DIV><FONT size=2>Hello all,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Finally had some good weather to go flying,
today.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Blue Skies, wind calm.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Had a malfunction that almost costed me my $3000 dollar
plane. Okay I was in the middle of the Intermediate pattern. And
suddenly I noticed that it was rolling extremely slower than it was when I
started the pattern.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>So I told Uncle Mike,that I was gonna go ahead and bring
it on in. So turned around came in for a approach and got a little
slow and the that one aileron really wasn't working well going that
slow. So I chopped the throttle and set her down in the
grass. And so the mud caught it and made the nose dig into the
mud. (Globs of it were on the plane).. RAN there to see
what the problem was. To find that my screw came off of the left
control rod on the left aileron and absolutely detached the rod from the
servo leaving the aileron just dangling in the wind.... Brought it in
cleaned it up got a new screw and tightened it as tight as I could get
it. And went ahead and flew one more time. No
problem.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>Like I said it was better to get mud all over the airplane
than to have it in pieces. So I saved the day. Very
happy.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>/</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=2>If anyone has any thoughts about controlling the
vibrations on the rod please tell me your secrets. thanks</FONT></DIV>
