Bearing Block Blunder

[Mike Dipalo]

Rockville, MD.

It's a bit of a haul for the postman :p

In my case, there were no bearing blocks for the E5 yet when  my bolt busted, so it was do or die. If you need to fly soon, I'd sooner replace the block and find a way to fix the old one as a spare.

That's prolly the way to go!

Hey Pastor. I live pretty close to you. Im up here in Lancaster. Probably an hour away from you if you need some hands on help. Im not sure how the broken bolt problem is going. And i just read your post about the tight main shaft and Chris's notes and video on the solution. More than happy to help if you want to make a little drive. Side note my wife and I are both members of the Desert Vineyard up here.

Did you ever get your problems sorted out Pastor?

Glen! I'm so sorry I didn't notice your post! Matt botos told me that it would be fine to leave as is so I did. In still building, it's been a bit slow. It would be great to take a drive down that way to fly with you guys for a day! God bless you!
