Chuck-as Chris said, the straight axel gear fittings are shown on the plans. I modified mine slightly as shown in my sketches but they arebasically what is shown on the plans.Mike C.________________________________________________________________________________Subject: Pietenpol-List: Riblett 612 Incidence?

I have found various threads discussing this airfoil and I just have not founda concrete answer to the desired wing incidence while using the Riblett 612. Firstlet me add that my project started from a set of GN1 plans but, I am goingto use a different strut design similar to the baby ace. This kind of strutwill not allow for ultra easy incidence adjustments to be made so I need to getthis as close as possible in the wing and strut design from the start. I havethe riblett 612 designed with 2deg incidence as of right now. Here is a layoutof what I have so far as well as a Cad model of the steel fuselage that I amworking on. I will also be building a 87% cub steel tail group as well. Theplane will be powered by a BMW R1100S engine which is just shy of 100hp.MikeRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ttachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/gm_1 ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: The Jeep Pietenpol engine update

I am located down in Leesburg, GA. I grew up around homebuilt airplanes yet reallynever became interested in building my own until now. I have been in the modelairplane industry off and on for over 14 years so i figured its time to designand build a real one.Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Riblett 612 Incidence?

Michael and Charles thank you for your kind words. I can say many parts ended up in the trash, especially the metalwork. The site is dated will have to get it updated. Also, because of your comments I will shift some time back to the project. Again thanks!Sent from my iPadJack Textor> On Oct 3, 2014, at 11:47 AM, "Cuy, Michael D.

Does anyone have any advice on going with such a setup to make changes to the wingincidence? I have designed the struts to use sold 4130 5/8 rod ends whichI have yet to look up the specs but I would bet they could lift a tank. I stillneed to design the wing attachment brackets which would bolt to the rod ends.Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ttachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/gn_1 ... ______Date: Sat, 04 Oct 2014 15:38:54 -0600
