Short Description: still working on control stick bearings
|
It has been amazingly difficult to work on this control system with so much other structure in the way. I should have thought ahead a little better, and recognized the importance of getting all of this just right when I had easier access. But with that said, I am making progress, however slowly. Both of the bearing cages for the FM-10 bearings that hold the transverse member are now properly bolted in and torqued with ny-lock nuts. Next I need to install the proper bolts drilled for castle nuts and cotter pins to hold the MM-4 rod end bearings in the aileron push-pull tubes. At that point I will be ready to do the final checks for proper upward and downward deflection of the ailerons.
