Opus Replacement Wing Bolt Size
Posted by on Aug 8, 2004, 21:40
If you're like me you will eventually lose the wing bolt that comes with your Opus. I found a good replacement at the local Ace Hardware store.
Get a grade 10.9 bolt that is 5mm x 16mm with a .80 thread. There are three different thread pitches so make sure to get the right one. The bolt I got uses a 3mm wrench instead of the stock bolts 2.5mm but that is OK with me.

Gary says...The Opus has always been one of my favorite all around fun sport planes and I have quite a bit of experience with this plane. I have manufactured a retro-fit assembly kit for the Opus which makes putting this plane together a breeze with a clean installation.
