Addionally, I think many of us remember Jim Faughn losing an aileron
counterweight while doing a fast pass at the gathering many years

Excellent point Dene. I noticed that many builders put their counterweights
below the counterweight arm so in normal cru
N56ML's ailerons are balanced across the entire nose, by filling a 4130 tube
with lead, then hogging out the nose foam with a dull spade bit, slathering
it up with epoxy and micro, and then encapsulating it in place with carbon
fiber on the ends. I guess I did that in such a hurry (it was way

I was wondering how many space you all have between the counterweight And the
egde of the hole in the aft of the aft spar. To prevent a aileron jam I am
thinking about 10 mm space around it.
Wat do you guys have ?
Thanks

The gap around the aileron counter weight on my KR-2 is 1/4-inch at the
closest point where the weight comes through the wing skin. The arm goes
through the middle of the trailing aux spar; closest clearance on the arm is
1/8-inch. The counter weights are flatter and wider than the plans to
tips.
