This is kinda directed to Mark Langford, do you have your bellcranks set up like Mark Jones's are or at the +20 -10 as per plans? If they are set to plan's have you guys compared flight characteristics of the two planes? Eric Von Kelsheimer +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ The "differential aileron travel" called for in the plans is to help offset adverse yaw when entering a turn. The down aileron produces more drag then the up aileron and rudder input is required to overcome this drag when entering a turn. My KR is set up to plans and I can roll in to a 30 degree bank turn with my feet flat on the floor and the ball stays perfectly centered. If you want that type of flight characteristics then I'd suggest you stick with the plans. I did have to change the cable attach points on my bell cranks to achieve the called for travel.
