Brief Description:  Install Flight Controls

We installed the elevatros, rudder and ailerons today.

Several minor hurdles were discovered along the way, and had to be dealt with.

One of theses was the Delrin rudder stop. It was 3/8" thick and when installed, pinched the hinge plate such that the rod end bearing hinge would not fit...it is 7/16". The rudder stop was reinstalled with spacer washers to fix the issue.

We had numerous delays attempting to put the required spacer washers in the hinge brackets. It was 90 degrees and 85% humidity in the hangar and the washers were challenging to get into position. Time was taken and all required washers were eventually installed.

Another issue was that some of the hardware and necessary tools were left in the workshop.

The trim cables were threaded through the horizontal stab and elevator.

At the end of the day all noted surfaces were attached.
