Guest extralite Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 So i snagged the wing of the Thruster on a fence post taxing out of the paddock. Now i need a new batten. I believe they are half inch wide? Does anyone have any old battens of similar size that they could spare? I can shape to fit the existing.

Deskpilot Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 You must have a much later Thruster than mine as I'm only aware of the tubular type Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Desk pilot was just confused by your non standard phraseology (wide) good thing you weren't talking on 126.7? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deskpilot Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 OK so now the question becomes, which batten do you need, mains or the smaller tip batten? Might be able to measure mine and printout a graph for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
