  • Tigercat upgraded mains question

    Does anyone have a tip or trick to remedy the mains getting caught on the inboard door? I have the upgraded mains installed. It seems like 8/10 times it gets caught on the inboard door and doesnt retract all the way. Also it the port side wing light doesnt seem to want to work. I've tried putting that connector in the working port side light slot and it still wouldnt work so i'm kind of stumped. Thanks for the help!

    The LED lights will be sensitive to polarity applied. If it won't light try reversing the plug as they may have the color code backward (easy error to make when soldering 100's of LEDs) Such a simple error and simple fix.

    The only solution to gear jamming on something is to move what it is hitting or move the gear. In your case that might mean the next size smaller wheel to gain a bit of clearance.

    I had to spin the wheels of my Dynam Me-262 with a drill and sand off some tire when I upgraded the retracts and struts.
