What really puzzles me is the hair line crack the big crackdanerazz wrote:The hole issues look like a laser cutter issue, and some of the marks look like they could be made by a cutter head contacting the part.
EDIT:
The pulley also looks like a CNC cutter starting point gone wrong. The CNC shop looks like they need some adjustment...

Re: SuperStol Bad Parts ??
Hard to believe they shipped those parts out to you. My SS is from that same time period. My parts were all okay. Side note: the aileron hinge brackets are not symmetrical. There is a top and a bottom. Hopefully they have updated the manual.

Thanks, I didn't know about those not being symmetrical. I asked for the most updated manual, drawings etc, the manual still has much to be desired.kenryan wrote:Hard to believe they shipped those parts out to you. My SS is from that same time period.

Make sure you list all of the pieces you are sending back. I’m positive the factory will replace them.
I wanted to edit my typo but apparently you can only edit a post for a certain amount of time. Above paragraph should read “Yes for sure I would think there would be no doubt they will replace them”

Jan 27 2020 received my replacement parts today, they said what i thought were cracks were scratches. The rest was do do with the laser cutting of the bolt holes but no explanation. Glad my parts are here just in time for me.
