I don't know how it was done by the previous owner, but my intention is: 1 - Measure accurately the required cable length; 2 - Ask a knowledgeable person how much stretching I should expect for that distance 3 - Build the cables accordingly, making them absolutely identical in size.
This way, I should manage to get it right by about half an inch. It will still be possible to adjust, because my aileron control rods are adjustable.

On the aileron loop, there is only one turnbuckle, and it is at the back, behind the rear spar, on the portion of cable that links the two bellcranks. Of course, to do that, you have to get the length of the two other portions of cable absolutely right, within the tolerance of your aileron control horn rod adjustment, and with no discrepancy between left and right. _______________________________________ Search the KRnet Archives at http://www.maddyhome.com/krsrch/index.jsp to UNsubscribe from KRnet, send a message to [email protected] please see other KRnet info at http://www.krnet.org/info.html
