Short Description: recognizing that controls need a lot of work
|
Since I have figured out how to drill these AN bolts, I decided to go through the control system and properly safety all the bolts there. This would have been a lot easier before the wings were on, but I got into a hurry because of several posts on the online forum about how the aileron belcranks in the plans are not correct. I wanted to make sure my second or third version of belcranks would give me the right number of degrees of up and down travel on the ailerons. Once I saw that I did, I put the control system on the back bumper and went on to other things. Now I need to finish it up, including smoothing the jagged edges in the cutouts for the control rods to pass through the ribs. This will be a no-fun day whenever I get around to that.
