• The Biplane Forum is a large global active community of biplane builders, owners and pilots. From Pitts to Skybolts, to older barnstormers, all types are welcome. In addition to our active community, our content boasts exhaustive technical information which is often sought after for projects and maintenance. This information has accumulated over the 12+ years the forum has been in existence.

    The Biplane Forum is a private community. Subscriptions are only $49.99/year or $6.99/month to gain access to this great community and unmatched source of information not found anywhere else on the web. We are also a great resource for non biplane users, since many GA aircraft are built the same way (fabric and tube construction). Annual membership also comes with two BiplaneForum.com decals.

Okay, so I'm trying to get the Skybolt ready to fly. I'm real close.

I had to remake my aileron slave struts. They're tack welded and bent, just needed to do the final fit to the airplane now that the ailerons are on.

And now I can't find the the new rod ends I ordered and the old heim joints that came off the original struts...:mad:

I'm going to order some new ones, and just checking to be sure I've got the right ones.

I'm looking at the HF-5M. Or, if anyone has some old servicable ones or even new ones they'd like to part with for a reasonable price.

Just checking before I order.

Thanks
