CAI302 bent control knob
On 12/19/2010 6:53 AM, Walter Weir wrote:
The control knob on my Cambridge 302 is slightly bent. It rotates OK but will not "double click" - it sticks when pushed in and has to be pulled out. Is it safe to try to bend it straight? Any advice on the best way to do this? Maybe it's not really a bent shaft. My 302 became sticky, but only in flight or in winter when it got colder. Using the point of a pin, I put the tiniest drop of the thinnest lubricant (LPS 1, I think) I had right at the base of the knob's shaft. Now it works fine all the time. -- Eric Greenwell - Washington State, USA (change ".netto" to ".us" to email me) - "Transponders in Sailplanes - Feb/2010" also ADS-B, PCAS, Flarm http://tinyurl.com/yb3xywl - "A Guide to Self-launching Sailplane Operation Mar/2004" Much of what you need to know tinyurl.com/yfs7tnz
