REFLECTOR: canard question

[Tony Babb]

I had exactly the same problem with the bushing being too short - on the
pilot side. I contacted the factory and spoke with Scott Swing, he made me a
longer bushing and shipped it the next day. Mine needed to be 3/8" longer
than the standard bushing. I should have asked for the longer bolt too,
currently I'm using a temporary bolt. Whenever I order something else from
the factory I'll also order the longer bolt.

Ken,
 
A 1/4 inch longer bolt and bushing would be great for me, too.  Is there any
particular place that these can be bought from?
 
Thank you,
Grigore

   I have found that a 1/4 inch longer bolt and bushing, installed on the
left side for canard lift tab, works great. It will straighten the Canard
and you will not need to mess with washers between the tab and bushing in
the future. You do need to make sure that you always use the long bolt on
the left side!!! I think this only applies to the SE fast build not the XL.
