Posted 17 Jul 2021 Hey all newbie here. I am in need of the flap handle and flaperon mixer along with the elevator push/pull tubes. If anyone knows of any other aircraft that has interchangable parts with the Avid mkIV please let me know or if you know of any available. Thanks, Aaron Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 17 Jul 2021 Kitfox are different. I had the Avid mixer controls but sold them to someone else already. I know TJay changed out his Kitfox 1 mixer controls for the Kitfox 4 style, can't remember if he stayed with the regular flaperons or not. That would maybe be an easier mixer to make up then the original Avid if you can't find any, and it gives more movement on one flaperon then the other to reduce adverse yaw. Maybe he'll chime in.

Posted 19 Jul 2021 (edited) Jimchuk,Thanks for responding. I would also consider a wreck or partial kit. Do you know if anyone has detailed drawings I have a kit representative claims he can manufacture the pieces. I am also looking for speedwing tanks if anyone has any for a reasonable price..

Posted 19 Jul 2021 Don't think the drawings were ever made publicly available. There are parts around from wrecked planes, just a matter of finding them. Could try posting an add on barnstormers, and the Facebook Avid group. JImChuk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted 20 Jul 2021 I asked for you there, and a Bob McCaa answered and said he had some of what you need, mixer controls and such. He usually is on this site, maybe you can find a post he made, and send him a private message. He didn't have pedals and joysticks and crosstube, but I have some of that stuff.

Posted 20 Jul 2021 I am still waiting on the forum approval I can only hope that the parts he has are available. He has just what I am looking for. Aaron (capfly) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
