Thanks for all the words. I have rerouted the push pull cables to get the
most open curve possible and a 90deg approach to the aileron control arms.
They move much easier with a 4 lb force applied at the top of the stick
being sufficient to get the stick to move. There is very little play in the
system. It is as good as I can get it and now I just wait for the NW rains
to let up so we can test fly it again. Another well spent 30+ hours of fun
in cramped places.
I am working on another project and using a solid modeler (a state of the
art CAD system). Anyone know of a good solid model of a SEFX? I can import
most any common file type. If there isn't one out there, then I might make
one. It will be good for simulation games and to design paint schemes. Be
happy to share it if I do make one.
