Recently someone posted an electronic way to remove rust from parts. I've
tried to search the archives but nothing pops up when searching for rust
removal??
Anyone remember who posted the message or the subject line.
Thanks,
Ron

My guess is that you're thinking of getting the actuator at the Surplus
Center at http://www.surpluscenter.com/ . If not, visit there and key in
"linear actuator" for a lot of inexpensive options.
I just got back from a great weekend with Richard Moleand even got

I was laying up some BID on some foam for the VStab parts. I layed up the one
side and then went back to the HStab. Several days later as I was waiting for
some curing on the HStab I went back to the one sided glassed foam to lay up
the other side. Because of the way I had stored it there was a
area=1.875 sq ft
speed=110*5280/3600=161.3 ft/sec
dyn press=.00238*.5*161.3*161.3=31 lb/sq ft
Cd for finite plate is 1.45 (not 1 because of wake drag - see Horner text)
So force on the board is Cd * dyn press * area = 84 lbs which you can
estimate acts at the center of the board. You then need to

My actuator is the one used on the flaps of RV aircraft so I know it is

Did your actuator quit? How many hours on it? If it did quit, then the

I would just go to an industrial supplier and get what you need. Take what
you have with you and they should be able to at least matc
I need to replace the 12vdc actuator on my belly board. I could buy another
from Van's Aircraft but I prefer not to spend the $320 they want for it. I
found another source where I can buy them at 1/3rd the cost of Van's. What I
need to know is the pounds force it takes to deploy my belly board.
