• 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.

Ok Im trying to wrap my head around the old plans S1C hinge and the newer Steen S1C hinge.

Im running with original plans cause that's how this project came,( to include some but not all the hinge hardware). I'm incorporating some of the "updated" 1996 plans.

The new hinge is clearly nothing like the old.

Has anyone run into this problem?

Will I have to build new ailerons or fabricate the older style hinge assemblies. The new style will push the ailerons back almost an inch further
