Title: Profile Pathfinder
Post by: Jack Mulinix on December 23, 2010, 09:03:54 PM

Merry Christmas to all, and a happy New Year. Now, been working on the pathfinder and have come to a stopage. Concerning the adj. leadout. Plans show the leadout mounted about 1/2- 3/4" from end of tip. Instructions show it mounted to wing rib, w/ the plans in photo showing in the tip. What do you all recommend? Drawing or instructions? thanks, Jack

Jack, don't sweat the small stuff. It makes little difference where it's mounted so just put it where you think it you'll like it and it feels solid. There isn't really any "load" on it in flight except maybe on a really windy day. I've mounted plenty of them to the rib in a plane with built up tips. Works fine.

Thanks Clint, guess I'll finish the outboard tip and see how it feels. Jack
