Anybody out there have Bill Maddox speed brakes and
have had them apart and have figured out how to adjust/service
them.
For those inquiring minds that must know why I
bought such things, the answer is that I had the old Precise Flight cable speed
brakes and I had a choice of a) keeping them (in retrospect probably the best
alternative) b) tearing my wing apart to fit the new and - I can only speculate
why - different shaped Precise Flight brakes and c) buying the Bill Maddox
brakes which were reputed to work better anyway.
Mine turned out to be DOA. They creep
out on takeoff, pop out when totally de-energized and are slow out to full
extension.
Bill was unable to resolve my problem and
Wolstenholm is taking a while to get a round toit.
I'm going to guess that I need some cleaning
solution and a couple special tools to resolve my $4000 problem, but
I thought I would ask if anyone has been there before.
