Wing Bolts

I've used the Secraft ones from Aztech, there pretty nice. I drilled a hole in mine for a hitch pin after a buddy of mine had a couple come off. The stud is aluminum so drilling is easy.

Or buy wing bolts from Aztech Aero. I have used alot of them over the years, and really like them. Its just a 1/4-20 or 6mm stud and nut.

Mine have never loosened up, but my flying buddy lost two the day he maidened his 35% Pilot Extra 330SC. One on the first flight which he replaced and checked all the others, and then lost another on the second flight. He didn't have enough thread sticking out to drill his. He never lost another after the first day.

One other thing I did was to JB Weld the studs in the wing. The Chinese blind nuts in the wing were such a sloppy fit I thought it was necessary. Putting a hitch pin in doesn't really do you any good if the stud falls out.;)
