ok, bit the bullet and just replaced the alternator with OEM brand new replacement, thinking the only source of high voltage had to be coming from an...

That’s not as bad as I thought it might be. Would you take $1100 shipped to 87031?

If the hole is cut properly the tang of the latch plate is in contact with the door and there is no shear loading on the adhesive. On my FX-3...

What I learned is that it depends on if you're using it to lock the window closed when you leave the aircraft. For example, if you put the window...

Pretty sure they are all put on the same way, the right front probably has most use/tension and is the one Ive had the most problem with. Just be...

I am having the same issue - the front right-hand metal latch plate started coming loose from the door just after delivery and now completely falls...

It's possible this is an instrumention error. It seems strange that the ignition battery voltage is higher than main bus voltage. It should be a...

No report on alternator test. Going back to mid October, looks like both voltages had been creeping upward, prior all at 14.1-14.2. Mid October...

I just changed mine, and it was not difficult. One trick was to jack the plane on one side to get the fuel to the outside of the tank you are...

Did they provide a test report? If so, what were the loaded and unloaded output voltages? I have data logs from several different FX-3 and...

took the alternator off and had it tested. The alternator shop felt the alternator functioning normally? Hmm. Pete Dougherty is trouble shooting.

Thanks Andy! appreciate it.

Great to hear and glad CubCrafters took good care of you, that is always a win for both. Andy is the super star here and he helped me a lot with my...

That's very odd, sorry to hear that. Keep us posted as you figure it out. Any leads? As for my issues, I replaced the alternator--whereupon I...

Yes, I can send them Tuesday 11/12. I think things are going to be closed Monday. Vance Knight

I wonder what it'd cost to ship. I'm about a 10 hr drive from you. Better yet, maybe possible to use Uship? I'm in New Mexico, 87031, and would be...

Hi Vance, do you still have the leading edge clamps? Greg Jacobi Oklahoma

If I recall correctly I used an 90 or a 45 degree (pneumatic) angle drill. Might try an undersized bit to check alignment of shaft to sleeve before...

Dan I have to replace my trim motor any tips on match drilling for pin?

I'm glad you got your items squared away. Care to share how you resolved the issues you reported? You had quite a bit going on but I haven't seen...
