Hey all,
I am trying mightily to finish up, the cosmos has it another way.
Today I tried to hook up the ailerons. After spending lots of time and
effort to get the ailerons and aileron wells just right for full aileron
travel, I have found that the aileron cable assembly is not reaching far
enough. I am hitting the travel limits of the cable.not stick travel.not
control surface binding.
Brief review: The aileron cable attaches to a bell crank in wing root which
attaches to the aileron torque tube. The bell crank comes pre-drilled. I
am going to drill a new whole in the bell crank closer to the pivot point so
I can get proper minimum aileron throw.
Has anybody else run into this problem? Are there other ways to do this?
