BackcountryAeropup Posted February 29, 2020 Posted February 29, 2020 It's been suggested to me that I should add a center latch to my doors and make it 3 point latching door. I'v taken a photo of this door from another Aeropup and I would like to know what tec name for these bearing bolts (like AN bolts) so I can order a set.
Blueadventures Posted March 1, 2020 Posted March 1, 2020 Perhaps do a search for control rod ends with bearings as the one in the picture has a spherical bearing. The Skyfox's had the s/s rod go through a piece of tube welded to the inside of the door frame. Any taildraggers or Gazelles around your area have a look at them (only two point securing).
Thruster88 Posted March 1, 2020 Posted March 1, 2020 I would like to know what tec name for these bearing bolts (like AN bolts) so I can order a set. Just Google aviation heim joint. The one pictured looks like a common commercial unit.
