Steven, The aileron cable connection on the stick per plans (guys correct me if I am wrong) is located 3" from the pivot point. The amount of travel your aileron will make depends on where you attach the push rod to the aileron bell horn. The closer you attach it to the aileron the farther your travel will be. The farther out you attach it the shorter the aileron travel will be. This can also be adjusted by placement of the push rod closer to the pivot point of the aileron bell crank.. When you ask about travel of the cable are you asking full travel right to left or only in one direction. The way mine is set, I would have to throw my control stick completely horizontal to get a full travel of 6" right to left. I probably never exceed a third of that in actual flight and that would be in extreme situations. While in flight, you will find a mere aileron deflection of 1/4" will get you where you want to go rather quickly. I will measure what I have the next time I am at the hanger. Hope this helps some for now.

Mark did reply. Re phrased. Can someone measure the total travel the aileron cable makes at the stick connection? Mine is looking like 1.75" maybe 2.0". Is this going to be enough? Thank you.
