Q: What can 158 grams of aluminum support? A: more than 100 pounds! When you select the right material, you can support a lot of weight with very little structure. Heres a doubled aluminum square tube holding a weight of 80 pounds at a moment (distance) of 16 inches. This is simulating a load on a rudder spar tube. To meet the requirement in this Belite Aircraft part, it had to hold about 65 pounds. It was tested to failure, which occurred between 100 and 110 pounds. See you at Sun n Fun, well have cool stuff there.! (P.S. -- we havent posted much recently because weve been very busy... :-)
