Re: Control Yoke Collars

Thanks all, I think that's 25 sets thus far. We need 50 sets requested to make the proposed $125/set price.

Each set would include two collars, one for the PIC side and one for the COP side.

Re: Control Yoke Collars

If you are making it from something soft and smooth like Delrin I am in for a set. Mine are just fine.. but the plastic they are made of is suboptimal.

Re: Control Yoke Collars

Hi Neal,

There is a loading condition that sets a minimum ksi for these parts, but I am planning a modern, slippery, material. In fact, it's the same that we use for a wear band in the dampers. Slightly softer than Delrin, M88 vs M94, and with a lower water absorption %.

We'll count you in!

Jim R. What would make my Co-pilot yoke consistently get a grease like coating on it while the pilot yoke stays shiny and never has the dirty grease on it like the co-pilot yoke? It doesn't matter how often I clean and wipe it down after a few flights it's back with the dirty grease, not bad, in fact very very lightly coated but enough to get your hand dirty if you touch it????
 
Re: Control Yoke Collars

Hi Todd,

Unless you are lubing the tubes, the closest grease to the area would be from the u-joints. Check for a leaking u-joint boot. Another long shot would be a pedal cylinder on that side squirting or misting some fluid as you use the brakes. Check for any wetness at the pedal cylinders, hoses, etc. If it's a dry blackness, it may just be "smoke" from metallic erosion of the tubes. The OEM collars may have a glass fill, we are not sure yet.

Jim that's what it is-a "dry Blackness", it's not wet.

Are you sure your mech hasn't been putting graphite on it?

Re: Control Yoke Collars

Jim,

With a previous Avionics guy (250# +) doing pull-ups on the yoke I'm sure I'm ready for a set. (same guy with the crowbar on the seat install):eek:
But hey, no way I can crawl under there these days . . .:o
Please include me as well on your list.
