Brief Description:  More control work

Drilled the hole in the elevator bellcrank for the AP pitch servo linkage per the Dynon plans. Match drilled the forward servo mounting hole through the servo bracket and through the bell crank flange in the LH rear baggage rails. Installed the bolt with a temporary nut since the bolt can't be installed with the bell crank in place. The Dynon plans call for a star washer and -10 flat washer under the bolt head but that resulted in interference between the bolt head and the bell crank rivets. I tried a -10L washer but that only left about .020 inches clearance which seemed to close so I removed the L washer and when with just the star washer.

Bolted the rest of the elevator control rods in place. Clamped the elevators in the neutral position, Level the fuselage at the longerons and measured the stick angle. They were at roughly 89 degrees. so I'll adjust the aft control rod to make the stick angle 90 degrees per the plans
