Classic type and provided with rudder, tail plane, elevator and trim electrically moved. The ailerons control is differential (when the right aileron moves upwards, the left one goes down-
wards and vice versa). The angle of steering on the upwards is wider than the angle of the one

and p.v.c. and the spar made of p.v.c.-carbon fibre.
The aileron course compared to neutral position is of 24° ±1° upwards and 12° ±1° downwards.
The consequence is the increase of ailerons’ efficiency especially in the big-incidence flight, also
to make up for the different curvature between the back and the underside of the wing.
Replaced through connecting rods and transfers, they efforts on the control handle are passed on
the wing. The controls assembly connects the right control stick with the left one and vice versa.
From each of them a transfer is connected to the respective wing through an extesible-head con-
necting rod. From that a bar inside the wing transmits the movement to the last transfer, integra-
ted into one of two aileron hinges.

Rigging of Ailerons Control


In a neutral position the ailerons’ aft edge must be on the same line as the back part of the wing
tip; the maximum admissible difference upwards or downwars is of 2 mm.
Check if the positions at the end of ailerons running are correct. If it isn’t, follow these steps:
1 Put the aileron upwards;
2 Loosen the push-rod locknuts which are under the wing. Act on the internal nut, by un-
screwing top ut the aileron up or by screwing top ut it down, until its trailing edge has the
indicated distance from the tip’s aft edge (limit switch upwards).
3 Consequently the limit switch downwards is correct thanks to the aileron’s tranfer design.
4 Screw and lock the external checknut.

2.9. FLAPS CONTROL


Flaps control is electric-type, made of a linear actuator driven by electric switch. The control sys-
tem is positioned inside the fuselage, accessible removing the trunk.
Flaps control is an electric switch with up-down positions located on the instrument panel in the
cockpit, on the control panel; by means of it flaps can be adjusted in continuous movement from
0° to 35° positions.

Control-stick adjustment
If the control stick is in a neutral position and the ailerons are not lined up with the respecti-
ve tips, act as follows:
1 Remove the door on the seats’s floor;
2 Unscrew the M6 nut to take off the connecting rod from the control-stick transfer;
3 Fix the aileron and the control stick in a neutral position;
4 The connecting rod goes up an adjustable head: unscrew the control for some turns and
rig the head until it can enter easily in the control-stick bolt;
5 Screw again the M6 nut and lock the checknut;
6 Close the door.

2.10. ELEVATOR CONTROL


The stabilizer is slightly in nosedive position to facilitate the aircraft nose-up, especially on take-
off. The elevator travel, respect to the neutral position, is of 20° +-1° upward and 15° +-1° down-
ward.
The elevator control is consisting of handle, connecting rod and quickdraw. The duralumin tube is
connected to axis, by means of ball bearing. The flapping of the “pushed” or “pulled” handle is
limited by control stops on the two sides of the axis.
The axis is fastened to the fuselage frame’s bottom tube through two bolts; around them the con-
trol stick is rotated lenghtwise.
The control-stick quickdraw is connected to the elevator one through a bar.

FRECCIA FRECCIA

Adjustment of The Elevator Control


The control stick’s neutral position in the cockpit must correspond to the elevator control’s neutral
position.
The rigging of the elevator’s angles of steering is possible through an adjustable connecting-rod.
To modify the length:
1 unscrew the connecting rod from the elevator’s bellcrank ;
2 unscrew the locknut;
3 then screw or unscrew the adjustable head.

Check of the system is made in the following points:


1 open inspection hole below the fuselage to have access to stick group
2 remove the trunk to have access to the control quickdrarws
3 check nuts and locking nuts of the system.

2.11. TRIM CONTROL


Trim adjusts the elevator position in a more accurate way to avoid continual corrections by the
control stick in flight.
Its movement is electric controlled by a switch located inside the cockpit, on the stick grips and
which transmits the movement to the actuator, positioned inside the elevator.
Adjustment of the travel is possible by the pushrod that join the actuator to the trim bellcrank.

The control stops of rudder steering are put on the support of the steering bellcrank. The rudder’s UNDERCARRIAGE
angle of steering on the left and on the right is of ±25°.

Adjustment of The Rudder Control


The angles of steering from the neutral position are of ±25° ±2°.
As for the adjustment you must:
1 Put the nose wheel in neutral;
2 It is necessary that neutral position of the rudder pedals correspond to neutral position of
nose wheel. Access to nose wheel – rudder pedals pushrods for check and adjustment are
two inspection holes on the firewall.

4.4. LIFTING AND LEVELLING


5. CLEANING AND CARE
When jacking the airplane the following procedure should be followed:
It is essential for the reliability of the airplane components to always keep them clean.
1 Put a stand (under a rib) under each wing to prevent the airplane from tilting.
2 Locate jacks under the nose landing gear ferrule and the other each side next to the cabin
walls, under the main landing gear box. 5.1. PAINTED EXTERNAL SURFACES
3 Apply wooden blocks.
Prior to clean, take the following steps
4 Lift the airplane gradually to the required height. Lift the airplane, raising each jack evenly
at the same time and avoid swaying. 1 Protect the wheels, especially the brake discs, covering them.
2 Put the cover on the pitot and static pressure sensors.
After lifting, the airplane should be leveled, so that the cabin wall edges are horizontal (see the 3 Mask off all holes and orifices.
illustration).
Use clean water to remove all fine particles and then wash the surface with water adding mild
LEVELLING soap. Do not use detergents or soaps which are acid, alkaline or abrasive.
To remove spots of grease or oil, use a piece of cloth with degraseing solvent.
After use of degraseing solvent the surface should be re-waxed and polished.
To polish the painted surfaces, a soft cloth or chamois leather should be used.
Aged painted surfaces can be treated with automotive waxes or good quality polishing com-
pounds.

5.2. GLASS PANELS


The greatest care should be taken to avoid scratches when cleaning glass panels of plexiglass.
Never wipe the glass panels when dry. Rinse the panel with clean water or solution of mild soap
and then wipe with soft clean cloth, sponge or chamois leather.
To remove films of oil or grease, use tribasic sodium phosphate, well dissolved in water.
Sediments of grease or oil, if difficult to remove, should be cleaned with methanol, hexane, or
naphtha. Finally rinse with clean water avoiding excessive rubbing of the glass panel surface.

Caution! Do not use petrol, benzene, acetone, anti-icing compounds, or paint solvents,
because these substances soften the plexiglass, or may give rise to a network of fine cracks

5.3. PROPELLER
The propeller is to be cleaned in the same way as the painted surfaces.

5.4. ENGINE
The engine is to be cleaned as indicated in the Engine Maintenance Manual.

5.5. CABIN INTERIOR


The seats, carpets and upholstery have to be cleaned with a vacuum cleaner.
Do not use water to clean items of cloth or fabric.
Foam-based shampoos for general use on automotive upholstery may be applied, but the indica-
tions given on the packing should be strictly observed.

6.1. MAIN WHEELS’ ASSEMBLAGE AND DISASSEMBLAGE To replace the tyre:


1 Empty the air from the tyre
As for the main wheels ’assemblage and disassembling, at first remove the wheels mudgu-
ards. Then: 2 Remove the tyre from the rim
3 Push the valve in the rim hole and remove the inner tube (if it’s present)
1 Put a jack under the iron tools which secure the undercarriage to the fuselage and jack the
wheel up 4 Check the rim, clean it
2 Unhook and unscrew the spacer on the wheel axle-shaft 5 Dry-clean the internal surface of the tyre
3 Remove the wheel from the axle-shaft 6 Put the tyre again (with the eventual inner tube) in the rim
4 Wash the bearings with gasoline and dry by blowing air 7 Inflate the tyre till the adequate pressure (2,0-2,2 kgf/cm², approximately 2 bar).
5 Check the bearings to found out eventual damages or corrosions. In case of need, replace
them
6 After the check-up, grease the bearings
6.4. MATERIALS USED IN MANUFACTURING PROCESS
7 The assemblage and the disassemblage of the wheel and of its fairing follow the reverse
order with regard to the disassemblage. Composite parts are made of (usable for small repairs):
8 Then pump the braking circuit. Carbon fibre 200 g/m2 Plain
PUMPING OF BRAKING CIRCUIT Glass fibre 300 g/m2 Twill; 200 g/m2 Plain; 160 g/m2 Twill; 80 g/m2 Plain
Foam 60 kg/m3 PVC 3 mm, 5 mm, 10 mm, 15 mm, 25 mm
The pumping of braking circuit needs two operators:
Resin Epoxy resin
1 First of all, install a PVC tube on the relief valve, cleaned from dust and incrustations.
Filler for bonding Microfibres; cab-o-sil; glass boubble
2 The other edge of that tube must be dipped in a container to recover the brake fluid.
Paint Gelcoat
3 An operator puts on the brake lever and keeps it locked in “brake” position until the end.
The other operator, following the order of the first one, unscrews the valve of two turns and Heat resistant protection Glass-aluminium-stainless steel sandwich
checks the flowing of air bubbles from the braking circuit.
All parts are made in moulds, therefore no shape or structural differences can occur.
4 In this way, the first operator causes the overflow of air bubbles until the stop and asks the
second operator for screwing well the valve. Then he releases the brake lever.
5 Repeat this operation until the air bubbles stop overflowing from the PVC tube.
6 In the pumping of braking circuit, see the fluid level in the expansion container and, in case
of need, fill up to not allow the level to go under a minimum and to avoid the air penetrati-
on in the circuit.
