I've been thinking about using push-pull cables for the ailerons rather than the conventional arrangement. Seems to me this could do away with the need for bellcranks and the like, but I'm not sure what the downsides might be.
I know push pull cables weigh more than standard aileron cable for a given length - although that would be offset somewhat by the shorter length and lower parts count.a push-pull solution would entail (e.g. no need for a cable running from the left aileron to the right). What else should I be considering? Cheers, Tony
